The DHS spent over $17,392 of our tax money analyzing that video for possible terrorist intentions. Do it some more. :)

We have 4H rabbits. I didn't read closely enough before watching the video and was horrified for a minute.

meuon, yep, we're going to ramp this up a little bit: I want to play with trash bags rather than just balloons, but I need to find some smaller ones because I've seen video of a full-on black plastic garbage can bag and there are some potential issues with... oh, I don't know, broken windows, that sort of thing.
battjt: Giggle.

Maybe try using the hydrogen to power a vortex cannon?

Garbage bags are famous tags with TAG cavers, toss a little carbide and water in a garbage bag, shake it up and wait for it to inflate. Ignite. Oh what a glorious noise. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbide_lamp

Acetylene has a slightly sharper crack than hydrogen...
I do like the vortex cannon idea.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
