    Gosh, our kids are really going to hate us. That is, when we actually have kids. And if the internet is still around. Yeah. Fire. It’s a good thing. Only if Mr. DeWindt could see you now…

    you pyro! when I was a middle schooler the “bad” kids that sat in the back of the bus used to take their lighters and aerosol deodorant and do something quite similar… however it was EXTREMELY unsafe being that it was done ON the school bus! at the tender age of 13 I feared for my life!

    Josh,

    I discovered you recently, and think I’ll be watching more of you. I’m just barely getting into vlogging myself. Anyway, I’ve blown fire quite a few times (and have made bigger fireballs), but I do it a little differently. I put the cornstarch directly in my mouth, then blow it over about 4 lit matches. Useful to know if you don’t have a propane tank around. If you try it this way, make sure you have a glass of water around to rinse your mouth out with – I can see why you used the paper. But try it from the mouth just to compare.

    non-dairy creamer from knollcrest also works quite well.

    OH MY – I will warn the parents of your girlfriend’s cousins that their children have been schooled in the art of “blowing FIRE!”

    Greatest part… “Maybe I can smoke it…”

    I’m surprised the guys from Jackass haven’t called you to be on the show yet! Seriously, there were so many things that could have gone wrong… the dry leaves on the ground catching fire, the fire flaming towards YOU (since sometimes you were blowing towards the wind), etc. One of Rudy’s coworkers just lost his eyebrows from getting fire in his face (the hair on his head is fine, since he has none :P ).

    Glad you’re safe, and thanks for the tips on how to get rid of weeds…

    Fun with fire…great!!

    My favorite part the grin you had on your face as you gave that awesome disclaimer at the end!

    Great to see you having fun and enjoying life. And though this is a simple video something about the joy is inspirational.
