You guys gotta remember that this is in a big open space. An outburst like that in a home kitchen would be devastating.
Some years ago my brother and I caused a grease/oil fire in our kitchen just like in this video, we were scared shitless, first thing my brother did was turn off the gas and then our dumbasses in a panic just thought about stopping the fire with water, which ended up being pretty much the exact same thing that in this video, luckily the fire didn't catch anything else even after the burst that came from pouring water on it (which even reached the ceiling for a second) and the fire died out almost inmediatly, then our minds thought "what were we thinking?" And after that incident we educated our asses and learned that in that case we should've used something like salt or dirt to kill the fire, assuming there are no fire extinguishers around
@@Brian_Eugene_Lee the point is you don't want to set the building on fire
@@Brian_Eugene_Lee One more point is not to get hit by the very hot oil dropps. I've seen what happens during an education class.
because i susualy use 3m stick to put out fires.@@Brian_Eugene_Lee
But after he added the water, the fire went out, so it worked ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What
Grease fires are trully terrifying. 2-3 years ago a grease fire started in a pan in our kitchen. The fire partially melted the microwave on the wall above the stove. The flame reached all the way to the ceiling slightly burning the entire wall above it. Me and my grandmother were panicking and couldn't think of what to do. A minute or two more and our entire kitchen would have probably been engulfed in flames. I believe I brought the pan to the sink (which thankfully was empty at the time) and began beating the fire down with a towel until the fire slowly went out. The entire house was engulfed in smoke and you could barely see. Thankfully afterwards i bought a fire extinguisher for the kitchen. Always be prepared for anything people. Better safe than sorry.
Bro killed the fire with his bare hands
@@railworksamerica I be that dude.
And if you're fast and early enough, you can simply stuff a metal, non-glass lid on top of the burning pan to quickly deprive the fire of it's much needed O2 to continue blazing. Without the O2, it'll almost instantly die out when there's just CO2 trapped underneath the lid.
Dam bro that’s 🔥
@@turolretar 💯
Now imagine that big ball of fire confined in a tiny kitchen. Whole kitchen would be engulfed in flames and burning oil.
Yes. The reason why that happens is because grease does not dissolve in water. So, it just spreads the flames.
Either cover it with a lid.
Or leave the home immediately, and call the fire department.
No wood needs more than grease flames to catch fire if any gasoline doesn't exist
That's exactly what happened when a neighbor teen put out a small grease fire in her kitchen. Instead of turning off the flame and covering it, she dumped water in it. It hit the ceiling. She panicked, ran out, and the whole house burned down.
@@Magdyymost ceilings aren't made of wood these days.
@@eksbocks9438my mom poured flour on a grease fire once. Stopped the fire.
To the people saying it put out the fire, yes it put out the fire BUT it certainly can catch the ceiling inside your kitchen and spread like a wildfire, or possibly burn your face off
I highly doubt that they are joking (at least most of them) - just look at the amout of dislikes this video got :v
I put out a fire inside a greased oven with a water hose it fights back a little but only a little bit. Its not that dangerous as all the people in this comment section think. High volume of water ensures nothing else catches on fire.
you cant put it out with water, but you will need a long stick so you can throw water on it from a safe distance. it's way easier to put a lid on it use a special blanket or spray foam on it.
Wow no dislike..

When there is fire in your house. Never try to pour water over it. Let it burn
Alvin Ok good advice for the firefighters.
RYAN STARTED THE FIRE !!!
Our science teacher demonstrated this to us at school in the early 2000s. Probably wouldn't be allowed to now, which is a shame as it made such an impression and was a valuable lesson for life.
Yup, snowflaketards would react bad to this.
You can’t even direct a frog anymore (at least in general education). Everything is boring.
@@42luke93really? like 3/4 years ago at my school we dissected a heart
@@42luke93 In a college biology class, we dissected a juvenile pig.
I don't know I'm still adding the alkali metals to water, giving quite a mini fireworks display.
From a very young age my mother taught me what to do if a grease fire happened. Since i was too young to understand the difference between whether it was a grease fire or a regular fire, she just said to do same on either. Put a damp towel over the fire.
There was one time i did this as a kid, around 7 years old, when my mum went out and left eggs on the boil. It wasn't a grease fire but it still shook me up as the eggs had smashed into the ceiling, smoke everywhere and alarm going off. Covered the pan with a damp towel and turned the stove off then opened the door to let the smoke out and fan the alarm so it would quiet.
My home ec teacher completely glossed over the fact that adding water to a grease fire was explosive. She only said it would be ineffective because water goes under the oil. Thankfully, I've never had to put out a grease fire to find out just how bad it gets.
A few years ago, I had to.
Covering it with a lid is a lot safer than using water.
Lol that's the dumbest explanation
@@Rare.99She wasnt wrong though. Water is denser than oil so it sinks, but boils really fast because of the heat, resulting in an explosion. She was right, just that she forgot to put footnotes
The water doesn't go under the oil, it boils immediately. I used to be a firefighter and did this demonstration and there was no water at all in the pan after the fire was out.
She just didn't know what she was talking about. That was the actual problem. @@justasandvich7168
I LOLed when he drank the water just to show them a fireman wasn't lying to them about pouring water on a grease fire.

What's funny about it? He just drinks some water to prove that it's water.

This also applies to candle wax. I have heard candle wax isn't supposed to burn, only the wick, but if you set a container of melted wax on fire and then pour water on it it looks so cool but is SOOOOO dangerous. DO NOT TRY AT HOME.
I accidentally spilt some water in melted candle wax a couple of weeks ago, but I thought nothing of it. Go out of the house, come back two hours later, there'd been a yellow candle wax explosion in my bathroom. YELLOW WAX. HARDENED. I can still see bits of it on the mirror and the windows, took me like an hour to scrape off.
I did try it and it caught on fire a long time ago so yes dont try that
When you burn a candle, it is the wax that burns, not the wick. The wick conveys the liquified wax upward toward the flame where the wax turns into a gaseous state and burns.
Now I want to try to see what happens.... Probably shouldn't have mentioned it looks cool because now I'm curious.
@@dp1381 Yep, and if you're a fat person who lights on fire, you can also be a candle! It's called the wick effect, and it's used to explain so called "spontaneous combustion"!
You also want to be mindful of what kind of fire extinguisher you're using. Different ones are for different fires. Some are for electrical fires while others are for normal fires, grease fires etc
The best thing to do is cover it up with something solid and non-flammable, so that it prevents the oxygen to fuel the fire. Adding more grease only helps if the grease is boiling, but not on fire yet.
Edit: Grammar.
nah
Damp cloth
Inflammable means a "substance which is easily set on fire". You probably meant non-flammable.
@@user-1281 Yeah, my mistake.
This is why a fire extinguisher is a great idea! Just remember to make sure what you plan on extinguishing is compatible with the extinguisher. For example don't use co2 extinguishers on a magnesium fire or lithium battery fire. They react and release even more heat and will probably just spread things around.
But how are people supposed to know this, you have to know that before hand, and I will go to is a fire extinguisher or water! It’s stuff like this and the mistakes never stop
@@42luke93 well in areas you work or live you should already know the hazards. Especially working if you aren't aware of the hazards make yourself aware before something happens. Its always good to be prepared. Also fire extinguishers aren't super complicated for example alot of everyday hazards co2 extinguishers can be used.
It is good to be aware for this reason. Otherwise we would be like deer that don't ever learn to look both ways. By the way what should I use to extinguish a lithium ion battery fire?@@midwestchem368
A Co2 fire extinguisher can't be used on flammable liquids, ie oil. The high pressure would just spread the burning material around. You can use a powder extinguisher, a fire blanket, or the caking agent.
If none are handy you can drape a damp towel over it (do it the right way around or you'll burn yourself, same as with a fire blanket), or pour baking powder or salt into it if it's a small fire- you'll need a lot though. You can also put a lid on it.
And before all of these things, turn the heat source off.
@@zoeadams2635 that is correct always check compatibility.

I remember a tutorial for properly extinguishing a grease fire, and it had the “do NOT use water” at the end. Just to prove the point, the floor, walls, and cabinets around the stove were *completely* ablaze!
Someone at my work learned this the hard way. Lit some grease on a pan on fire and thought it'd be fun to throw it in the dishwashing sink. Needless to say everyone kinda shat themselves
Ehehehehehe... :)
Yeah, best you can do if your pan starts burning is to remove it from the heat and keep it away from any water. Then put a lid on it, if necessary. But most of the time, it will stop burning if you just remove it from the heat.
Omg.
@@damokt do the lid or fire blanket just before, rather than trying to move a burning pan. Obviously turn the heat off so it doesn't spontaneously combust again when the lid is removed. Keep the lid on until it has cooled.
@@TimpBizkit yeah, unless it's going to hurt you. Lid (vacuum) is the best option
I had to put out a similar fire as part of my fire marshall training. When the trainer squirted water onto an oil pan fire, the heat it gave off was intense and all the trainees had to back off another 10'. My test was to use a fire blanket to extinguish the fire, although others used foam extinguishers. Excellent training which really gives you perspective of how dangerous, even small fires can be.

That is because water expands by 1600 times when it changes from water to steam.
During the expansion it sprays tiny droplets of the burning oil into the air where they immediately ignite due to the surface area in contact with air increasing hugely.
Well, the pan fire went out...but now the walls are ablaze!
Princess Lemmy Start of a wonderful song.
That where you use your noggin and spray at the walls!
uh-huh lets spray at ALL the walls that caught on fire

One of the more common mistakes (I am a firefighter) is people panicking and using extinguishers on chip pan fires. The force from the extinguisher blasts the oil all over the kitchen, and what was a small kitchen fire very quickly turns into the entire kitchen being on fire.
For those curious as to why it ignition to fire its because the water and grease separate but because it's so hot the breaker startes find a way away from the water aka jumping out of the drum

Kevin _
Yeah I see him.
He's in the far back on the statue.
I had a science teacher who did a similar demonstration inside the classroom.
The pot was maybe a quarter of the size, but it still left part of the ceiling scorched black. Luckily he told us to go to the rear half of the room.
Scientific explanation : Because when the oil is on fire it is so hot (450°C +), when the water goes in the oil, it boils instantly. As we all know when water boils it steams up and bubbles. So when it is in the oil, and it boils instantly, the water bubbles and essentially throws the oil everywhere while it bubbles effectively creating a fireball. As always never do this if you want your kitchen. Please put the lid on, it is so simple :)
Dude acted like he was about to do a stunt or something 🤦♂️
That kinda was a stunt though
Me: reads comment

This was a stunt
A rather dangerous incredibly life endangering stunt if it was anywhere else that wasn’t where he did it
If this was demonstrated in someone's home, the fire couldve burnt the ceiling and then the whole house would started burning.
If you dont have a correct type of fire extinguisher at home, first thing is to turn off the heat, then put a lid on top of the pot to remove oxygen (lid not made of glass). Just remember not to use water when the pot is burning, and dont ever move the pot when it is burning.
Helena Hau fire blankets are recommended.Cheers!
Yeah my sister and I had an oil fire happen while we were cooking. I didn't know anything about them so I took the pot outside, and the fire got taller with every step I took. It also licked backwards like it was trying to eat me, so my sister was following me every step of the way, fanning as fast as possible so I wouldn't get burned. We left the kitchen, went down the deck and the deck stairs, and put it down by the pond. And by then that modest about of oil was creating a flame about as tall as my waist and full of dense black smoke, and me and my sister are like shit, what do we do now...
Our dad ended up throwing water while we all watched from a safe distance. Awesome memory.
That's a life saving comment right there!
If you don't have a lid for the pot, fry pan etc, a metal oven tray works instead.
I was once cooking some mint lamb burgers in the grill at 16 minutes fine at 20 it had caught fire, I reacted like a total girl as per usual from me to 🔥 and my dad who has bad back problems came in to take it out of the grill and was going to try and take it outside on to the concrete slabs we have but he dropped it as his back played up and then he started yelling at me to throw water at it bare in mind we didn't have a fire blanket or extinguisher, I hesitated and said what if it's a grease fire he still yelled at me to do it I told him to move away from it before I did and then threw half a kitchen bowl of water at it, it went huge and burnt the ceiling for a second and then died.
Fine I won't try it at my home ILL TRY IT AT MY FRIENDS HOUSE HAHAHAHAHAAHAHA

Title: Don't try this at home
Me: Tries it outside
I like to believe that they all were only there to watch that one short demonstration, and that they had been looking forward to it all year long.
This just happened to me a couple of hours ago, the pan overheated and caught fire. I had no idea what to do (didn't watch this video or have any knowledge of what to do prior). I held it under the tap and fire got worse and burnt my left hand. The walls are smoky. Scariest thing to happen in my life. At least I know for the future, water is a no no.
In future, try to smother it if you don't have a Class B extinguisher. Baking Soda, Cat Litter, and even dirt, try and snuff it out.
@@hatad321 I don't know abot foreign homes, but in Dutch homes, the dishwashing cloth (well, the cloth to dry the dishes with) is the fastest thing to grab. Soak it under the tap and put it over the pan, or use it to grab a lid and put the lid on the burning pan.
I consider the most extinguishers a no no: powder-based ones are a pain to use as they destroy every electric appliance in your kitchen, beside posing a great risk to your own health as well. Use a fire-blanket, the lid or, if no lid is available or too close to the fire, a wetted cloth that fits over the pan.
Whatever you do: don't hessitate! It's scary to come close to a fire, but be firm in your actions. Throwing a blanket or lid on the fire without care can make it worse!
It's frightening how many people don't teach their kids just to turn off the burner and cover the pan.
Some kids across the street burned their whole house down putting water on a fire in a pan.

For people saying that it put the fire out...don't forget that some people have a range hood that collects grease in the filter. If a fire bursts up like that when you pour water on it, imagine what would happen if the fire catches on the grease in the range hood. Alpha wood paper fires, water or fire extinguisher, bravo oil firws foam or fire extinguisher becauae water just pushes it around, Charlie electrical fires chemical or fire extinguisher because water doesn't mix with electrical, Delta...I guess foam or from what I learned in the Navy, throw it off the boat. And they have a special system for grease kitchen fires, but extinguishers should work too
This took "Do not try this at home" to the next level
One time, my ex and I were cooking in the kitchen. We were frying something and there was a massive grease fire in the pan. We were so scared.
Naturally, I figured water would quench it so I took a bowl of water and poured on it. BAD IDEA! A huge burst of fire erupted toward the ceiling and the fire grew bigger. I thought we were doomed.
Somehow, I was able to take the pan into the sink and let the faucet run water on it which killed the fire. The whole house was filled with smoke and the ceiling, backsplash and stove hood had burn marks.
It was incredibly scary and happened so quickly. I'm just glad our house didn't burn down.

This is fairly commonly shown on Dutch television. The guy that demonstrates it in this video is a national icon on firefighting tips (his suit says 'Brandweerman Cor' which means Firefighter Cor' (Cor is a common first name for males in The Netherlands).
Don't know the program(s) he was featured in over the years, but I even know this from a TV-program for kids called Het Klokhuis: it handles all kinds of questions from kids on basically any topic out there, whether the question is about science, physics or anything else. Putting out a grease/oil fire was one of those fragments that stayed with me as a kid under 10 years old.
Firedepartments in The Netherlands also tend to hold annual open house, where they demonstrate all kinds of activities they encounter, be it freeing someone from a car wreck by using hydraulic scissors and such, or including the risks of putting out a grease/oil fire with water, it's all shown like in this video for no charge at all, just keep an eye on your fire department to find out when their next open house will be.
They literally teach you this in grade 2 and 3

"Dont use water to put out grease fire"
So the point is to show what happen if you do and to show its harmful..lol.
The firefighter wasnt suggesting people to do just that.
This is what caused the Great Seattle Fire of 1889. A grease fire like this started in a glue factory, and they tried putting it out with water
funny they show how not to put out an oil fire, but not how to put out an oil fire. i can say from experience that if the pot has a lid put it on the pot and viola no more fire just turn the heat off and let it sit until cooled. I once had an accident when cooking with oil where i put frozen tots in and the oil bubbled out over the top hit the burner and boom instant 4 ft flames on the stove but i didn't panic i quickly thought to put the lid on it then i turned the burner off and put on oven mits to remove the pot of oil from the burner just to the center of the stove, then i wet(soaked) a dish towel and smothered the remaining flames from the the oil that was in the burner pan. if i had taken the time to call the fire department then i would have had a burned down apartment i was 12 yrs old .be smart be quick and dont panic , i always keep fire extinguishers in the house now, it is better to be prepared and know what to do, than it is to wait for somthing to happen and then try to figure out how to handle the situation.
Funny how retarded your sentence was; "funny they show how not to put out an oil fire, but not how to put out an oil fire." well no bloody shit they show how to NOT put the fire out since most of the people that probably will see a flame will think lets pour water on it! because water vs flaming plan will really help out when it doesnt.... thats why they show this... + why the fuck would they show that OUTSIDE some guying just standing by and putting the lid on the pan and wait untill the fire is out is not entertaining enough for these people to have an event outside in the open having hundreds people watching it just to look at some guy putting a lid on a pan to turn off the fire.....
Please use common sense next time James. you seriously made me hit my head on the wall there with that stupid sentence of yours.
Fuck off, its funny how stupid you are to waste your time responding negatively to my comment. I gave useful Info on my experience with grease/cooking oil fires and stated my opinion that it would have been useful if they had demonstrated the proper way to put out such a fire. all you did is talk shit
Wow, the toxicity here is on part with the toxicity of the smoke from the burning oil.
Of course they also showed the correct procedure. Just get a new pan (so it is cool and safe), a bit more oil, heat it up, lit it on fire. (All this was done before the video started anyway). Then turn off the heat and apply the lid.
This is video is not showing the whole event, simple as that.
Just because it didn't happen in the video doesn't mean it didn't happen at all, you complete fucktard. Big surprise, the moron is American.

This will now spread like wildfire on TikTok with kids trying to outdo each other's oil fires.
Thats actually great to know. I have a sink literally right next to stove so if a pan ever catched on fire my first instinct would be to spill water from sink on it. Now I know its the best to just take it outside asap
WHATAH IN THE FIRE? WHYYYYY?????
Oh, lovely beauty Maastricht ^_____^
lucky to live here everyday
Ik dacht al: komt me bekend voor.
Around a month ago there was a case in my country where one guy that left the oil and it started to burn, when he came back he poured water on it and the 'explosion' from itbroke all the windows in his apartment and his neighbors windows/
So he’s basically saying use water to put out the fire, as proved by the demonstrator. Good advice.
WATER IN THE FIRE, WHY????
We’re doing this for science.

00:41 That moment you realize you almost blew up your audience with the propane tank.
I almost burnt down my kitchen from a bit of spit grease while grilling burgers. Literally left them for about 7 minutes to find a gulf of flames all over the cooker. I burnt about three towels trying to smother the fire, only to come to the horrific realisation that I'd have to swallow my pride and call the fire brigade. One of my worst moments while living alone that and why fire extinguishers are a must.
Nice demonstration of Fire Safety 🔥
This is in holland in case you didn't know
Ja dat wist ik

Water in the fire WHY
Remember folks. The best home remedy to snuff the flames is to put a lid on the pan and suffocate the oxygen. It will go out completely in seconds. If you don't have a pot lid to use, put the pan in the oven, but only if it's NOT a hot oven. It won't suffocate the flames, but the oven is made to withstand much higher temperatures then your kitchen walls or ceiling. It will hopefully afford the flame enough time to burn out before it can damage the oven, and can give you enough time to find a better extinguisher, like a lid of some sort or an actual fire extinguisher.
Learnt about this at Girl Guides, by accident. We were all making popcorn over little fires in groups outside, then suddenly I see out the corner of my eye a stream of fire shoot up, reaching a couple of metres, one of the girls had poured water onto her fire, I hate to think what could of happened 🙈 glad she didn’t have her head over the top of it.
“The effects can be devastating”
Does anyone know what im referencing? Im pretty sure anyone from the UK knows.
Cigar3tin Nic0tin0 Occasional PIF watcher from the Internet (but not the UK). I hear you.
So I was always aware of this rule. Always heard it but only seen it once in a viral video. Pot was on fire after cooking so they put a cup of water on it and a fireball hit the ceiling.
Well... I knew about this BUT I recently learned how INCREDIBLY SENSITIVE these fires are to water.
In my room, I had a medium sized candle that burned faster than the wax did since I had it in the A/C's path. Wouldnt burn at this point so I tossed an empty match box in the candle to burn away some wax right? Well it worked ALOT better than expected. The flame extended past the rim by about an inch and and seemed to work out. Over time I expected the matchbox to eventually become uneffective but it burned more efficiently as time went. Eventually, the flame extended 3 inches out of the rim and the flame had stabilized itself with air intake pockets.
At this point I began to panic a little bit and thought about going outside to extinguish it but its a long walk. I was wary of using water because Im not supposed to do it so I decided Id use a few drops to see if it would lower the flame.
*I was very wrong.*
I had a brand new water bottle and gently poured out a teaspoon of water onto the candle and it happened. A MASSIVE fireball launched 7 ft in the air to my ceiling. Mind you it was 3am at the time and the flame ball seemed like daylight. I was utterly taken by surprise. LUCKILY it was just a flame ball and went away but it also shattered the candle glass walls and... well I mean... it Worked? But yea...
It was a damn CANDLE. Like what the heck. Lesson learned 10/10 would not ever do again.
Concerned homeowner: Oh no my living room. Some plain water will put that fire out
Fire: You've just made me angrier
He got his moment
I mean, it works.
Not it doesn't. The fire in the pan went out but the ceiling, your face and your clothes would be on fire.
Water in the fire why 😳
My expectations were too high and I ended up being disappointing, I though the fire would bigger
effective demonstrations are always a better learning experience than reading.
