- Fun with lighters - There is many things that you can do with lighters. They are cheap and usefull. These are only a few of the many things you can do with a lighter. Do not use and electric lighter for best outcome. 1. Get a brand new lighter and make a little bon fire. Make sure the flames of the bon fire are exposed. Place the lighter in the fire and get back and let it burn. After the fire melts through the plastic covering the lighter will create a giant fire ball. Very cool to watch at night. 2. Take a brand new lighter and throw it away from you an a hard surface. It will explode from the pressure inside. 3. Take a brand new lighter and take off the spark wheel, then the ussually black cover. You should be able to see an unscrewable peice of plastic. When you unscrew this, it will realease the gasses. So light a match and you have yourself a temporary blow torch! They only last from 10 - 50 seconds depending on how much you unscrew the top. 4. Heres how to make another kind of blow torch. Take a medical syringe without the needle. Place the tip of the syringe on the gas port. Then hold down the gas realse and suck it up into the syringe very slowly. Then cap the syrenge if you want to store it. All you have to do to use this thing is light the lighter about an inch from the tip of the syringe and push! Depending on how fast you push it will determine how big and how long your flame will last. Experiment! 5. This will give you a nice little sparkle...Light the lighter and then strike the spark wheel again while the lighter is lit to get a little sparkeling flame. 6. You can have a fire breathers effect if you suck up the gas into your mouth and blow as the lighter is lit...... -----===>Vortex
