The author does Nrronstruction of the following item, and can assume no responsibility for any action resulting from use, sales, transportation, or possesssion of the device shown herein. This "experiment" reminds us of the famous zepplin Hindenburg. The Hindenburg was filled with moderatly volatile (and highly expensive) hydrogen, this version will use a commonly available (and very volatile!) oxygen-acetelyene mixture... 1) Obtain the use of an oxygen-acetelyene cutting torch (school metal or auto shop, body shop, jeweler, or bike shop should have one handy). Light the torch and find the "perfect" mixture - very blue flame. Have someone help if needed. REMEMBER THE SOOHE OXY/ACE KNOBS. 2) Let the torch cool - cold to the touch... 3) Open the valves to the SAME SETTING AS ABOVE. 4) Put a nice, thick, big balloon over the nozzle. Don't skimp on your balloon selection. Get the biggest and sturdiest, it's only 98 cents. 5) Fill and tie the balloon. Shut off the nozzles and find yourself a LONG fuse, (string dipped in glue then black powder does nicely) and simply tape one end of the fuse to the side of the balloon. 6) Put the balloon in the nearest car or trash can. Extend the fuse HORIZONTALLY - FAR FROM THE BALLOON: MAKE SURE NO ASHES WILL FALL ON THE BALLOON PREMATURLY. 7) The famous last words: light and run like hell...
