Glycerin

[Coelho]

Haha....Don't think you gotta worry too much about anything blowing up...when it burns...its more like burning cooking oil. Hard to ignite but once it gets going it burns well.
YouTube - Potassium Permanganate + Glycerol = Fire!

This is with an oxidizer of course but cool nonetheless

Man... i did this experiment looong ago, when i was a teenager and used to play with chemical substances, most explosives, incendiaries and such... nowadays the only thing i burn is weed... :jointsmile:
Anyway, thank you for making me remember the old times! :thumbsup:
