How Do You Light A Candle Without Touching The Wick?
• Make sure you don’t burn your fingers, other body parts, carpets, house, etc. • Light your candle normally. • Let it burn until the wick is charred. • Blow out the candle, a wreath of smoke will curl upward from the wick. • Apply a match to this smoke a couple of inches above the candle, the flame will run down the smoke and lighting the candle. This is explained by a gas in the smoke being ignited by the match. And yet again, the proof that science is all around you.
