Lightning a BBQ with liquid oxygen

25


In 1995 George Goble experimented at Purdue university trying to find the fastest way to light a BBQ. This video shows the fastest way, pouring 3 gallons of liquid oxygen over a grill with 60 pounds of coal and a lighted cigarette. In the second part of the video this method is used on a 2.88$ discount grill. Most of it vaporizes(!) in the process. A full report can be found here: www.columbiatribune.com Watch a version with sound here: www.youtube.com

Nope. George was a staffer for the engr network long before this was shot. I knew him when I was a student there in the ’80′s.

What a rediculous statement. The STUPIDITY of people on YT never ceases to amaze and bewilder.

rdavola @ 5:56 am #

What an outrage! This is rebellious carbon denial activities.

nmacgre @ 6:26 am #

George Goble actually passed away doing this same thing to his fireplace. He’s Mormon, so at least we know he;s in a better place now.
