This is an interesting little kitchen science experiment that is better thought of as backyard science since it involves an open flame. But this video shows you how to create your own flaming balls that you can hold in your hands! [3:25]

Dev, this should tickle your funnybone. I thought of you the moment I saw it and commented on it.
Ummm, GrrlScientist - have you actually tried this? I can't decide whether it's real or a clever hoax... anyone else had a go?
Hmmm...I thought blue was supposed to be the hottest part of the flame, not orange...
i have not tried it, as a resident of NYC, i don't have a yard and would likely be arrested if i tried this on the sidewalk, unfortunately. but it certainly looks like fun, and it doesn't look like a hoax, either, having played with fire several times in my youth.
