Fireworks get out of control during a Mexican street festival |
This is a festival going on in the country of Mexico from the village of San Juan Dela Vega, and it goes on every Tuesday before he lent.
This explosive festival combines Mexican man fireworks and sledgehammers but the real star of the show is former local boy David Guadiana who's pushing the firework to sledge hammer ratio to the scientific max.
How does he create this epic explosion without matches?
Normally you would use are lighter or match that would like to fuse they're not doing that well they're using is a touch-sensitive explosive as he smashes the hammer down wack courses the chemicals to grained together of you imagine rubbing your hands together you can feel we're getting warm and this is what happens with these chemicals and this the heat source then sets of the explosive part of the firework.
Rather having to react with oxygen is in the air they've already got the oxygen mixed in with all the fuel and this means that when that they get heat source all the chemicals are already mixed and ready to just go off taking David with it.
What's responsible for David's airborne excursion? That is Newton's law for every action there has to be a reaction, so get these gases blowing out, instantly there's a reaction on the hammer throw it back same way rockets work, if gas is going out, rocket goes up.
