Ever wonder what happens when you combine kitchenware with fireworks? A man in China decided to turn his cooking pot into the Apollo Program, putting increasingly bigger firecrackers underneath it to see how high it could fly. Check it out!

Putting various Chinese firecrackers to the ultimate test: under a pot! Watch as we explore these pyrotechnics’ explosive power, sound levels, and lift force. This video showcases the different effects of each firecracker, from loud bangs to impressive launches. Observe the damage (or lack thereof) to the pot and learn about the science behind these mini-explosions. (Disclaimer: This video demonstrates controlled testing in a safe environment. Do not replicate these experiments without proper safety precautions and permits.)
