Red Hot Ball Of Nickel vs. Jawbreaker



YouTube member carsandwater continues his Red Hot Ball of Nickel series by seeing what happens when you drop one on a large jawbreaker. This one is a volatile combination. What you get is a volcano, complete with tremors, smoke, steam, and lava flow of hot, sticky sugar! That’s going to be a mess to clean up. (via Viral Viral Videos)

Considering the chemical makeup of sugar (carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen), I'm surprised it didn't combust and burn.

If you look closely, you can see flames dancing around the top of the ball after it has burned most of the way in- just like you would think!

Yes, almost like an alcohol fuel fire you can't see until you're in it.
