Make a Fireball in Your Hand With Only a Lighter

All you need is a lighter, and gloves if you want (use ones that can't catch on fire). It is fun for any magic show that you want to have; everyone will like this trick!

Steps

  1. Make a fist with a hole on top of the fist.
  2. Turn the lighter upside down.
  3. Put it on the hole.
  4. Press the button to release the fluid, but do not strike the flint.
  5. Keep there for 3 seconds
  6. Release the button and light the lighter normally, then take the lighter away quickly and open your hand to reveal fire.

Tips

  • Keep a bucket of water nearby. While it may be unlikely that you will burn your hand, it is always better to be safe rather than burned.
  • Remember don't pull your hand away too quickly or it will not work.

Warnings

  • Open your hand immediately after lighting the fluid, the fire will only burn momentarily before going out as there is a limited amount of fluid for the fire to burn.
  • Never attempt this effect without adult supervision. Many people get burned or seriously injured experimenting with fire and chemicals.
  • Make sure to do this in an area that is non flammable. Never do this near other items that catch fire. Keep away from things such as paper towels, toilet paper, and other flammable objects.
