If you are someone who loves performing science experiments at home or watching videos of people executing stunning experiments, then here’s a video that will leave you delighted. The now-viral video opens to show a woman snuffing out a candle with a paper cup and immediately lighting a lighter. She then takes the fire source near to the smoke trail released by the candle. As the video nears its end, the flame travels down and relights the candle.
“Lighting a candle using its own smoke,” read the caption of the video shared on Twitter by the handle @gunsnrosesgirl3. The user replied to their own tweet and wrote, “See that white smoke when the candle goes out. That’s paraffin wax vapour. It’s the unburned fuel particles, including unburned carbon, this fuel trail is flammable as seen here it can be ignited.”
