This is a video of the Backyard Scientist constructing a device to blow consistent air rings underwater, then pumping oxygen and propane through the system to create flammable GAS rings, then using a homemade underwater cattle prod to ignite those rings and film the results in slow-motion.

This is a video from Youtuber and match chain reactionist The S launching a cardboard UFO with the help of a 25,000 match chain reaction. It really was glorious to watch, particularly all the matches flying towards the camera in slow motion. I felt like I was right there! I
