@@LobsterLore Its a plant native to the southern US in areas in the Caribbean and I believe in some areas of the desert as well , as he mentioned at 9:50 the mexican weevil is a invasive bug species that is killing these plants so now the air plant in some areas is becoming endangered .Also a reason they are called air plants is because they are able to grow on places that are holding a bit of moisture so you see them on the sides of trees , telephone poles ,houses . ect

Ah, you must be American, since this is a typical example of Americans almost ALWAYS misunderstanding what puns ACTUALLY ARE, and these ARE NOT puns. Believe me, I'm English, we invented the pun, and are *masters of their delivery.* Using slang which is SO, SO over-used as to render people all but deaf to it, such as "hot" and "cool," and using these words, which are coincidentally descriptors of temperature, which the video references, DOESN'T MAKE THIS VIDEO AN EXAMPLE OF PUN DELIVERY.
I've always thought it might be fun to somehow mix some liquid oxygen and kerosene (from what little I can find about this, the LOX would boil off quickly, but briefly you would have a slushie). If I understand correctly, if they are near stoichiometric and mixed, it will go high-order and detonate.

As soon as the video started and I saw he was playing with Methane, my first thought was "I wonder if he'll make a soap bubble tower to light on fire?". I am glad to see that the answer was yes. Anytime you have Methane that is just something you gotta do lol.
Please show us all of your favorite plants in your yard! I collect air plants and that big boy you have is beautiful! I also found some air plants that had fallen outside of a Panera, those little guys are blooming and thriving!
This concept makes sense actually. Most likely a flammable gas that's been super condensed/chilled to a liquid (like liquid nitrogen is). And the reason it doesn't all go up in flames is probably because the liquid around the fire flash-steams, pushing the the fire away faster than the liquids overall flow rate.
Actually, methane has a 30 times bigger greenhouse effect than carbon dioxide. When burning, you get three times as much carbon dioxide than methane. So burning the methane instead of releasing it into the air would actually be good. Just set the cows farts on fire!
If your air plant spores, give out packets of its seeds. Also, wondering if the gas bubbles floating in the air and being lit on fire could be used in film making for SPFX?
Can you please make Da Vinci’s diving suit? Thanks for the likes. Can we give Kevin some encouragement for this project? These likes tell me a new trend is at hand. Let’s spread this out!😁
