      Recipe is useless without the way you do it. Just like making a cake is to take sugar, water, flour, baking powder, eggs, milk and butter, plus some minor ingredients like cocoa, salt and vanilla, but you really have to know how to mix them, and in what order, to make something that will actually look like a cake.

      @@SeanBZA It's 2 ingredients, not 10. A very short google search for "thermite recipe ratio" give a 3 iron oxide part to 1 aluminum part, drop in a container and shake to combine. A simple sparkler is hot enough to ignite. Thermite cake is ready done.

    I love how slow mo guys always get to the point and don't stretch things out.
    What i mean by it, they introduce themselves and they don't stretch the introductions out for 2 minutes. They say what they're gonna be doing (obviously) and what they're expecting. Maybe show the process of how they're setting the equipment up and tell us about the camera they're using. Then they film the slow motion and just...boom

    For anyone interested what the bubbles were about; it's called the Leidenfrost Effect. It happens when something significantly hotter than the boiling point of a liquid is introduced to that liquid. Basically, there forms a sort of protective layer of vapor around the object in contact with the liquid (from the liquid itself); which in turn acts as insulation against further contact between the two.
    It's the same thing that happens (if you've ever seen it), when water "Skitters" around a really hot frying pan when suddenly introduced; in that case, the droplets riding on a "skirt" of their own vapor.
