Use a potato to create fire
Girl: Can you light my cigarette?
You: Well, I don't have my lighter or matches... but wait! I have big pockets, so I carry around a bunch of junk. Let's see... Good news! I've got all the stuff to make a fire.
lol not the best scenario.
Cool experiment though...
Omgsh your so right! It's sooo much easier to carry around a sack of potatoes, tootpaste, salt, a spoon, 2 wires, 2 toothpicks, or better yet some duct tape, and some tampons.

By MeganMalice 1253862596 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removei hold a chem degree and look at the chemisty behind this, it doesnt work!
u placed a current source in the potato!
stupid vid
It seems to be based off the idea that one can make a battery using a potato and two metals. The problem is
(1) both metals are the same --> no potential difference
(2) cotton does not conduct well enough to light on fire except at very high voltages
(3) even if the combination of toothpaste and salt did something, the system is symmetric -- which way would the current flow?
girl: do you have a light
you:no but i do have a pottato a spoon salt and more S**t just wait 10 minutes and i have a light for you
girl:yeah right
-10 mins. later-
you: here you go
girl: -sleeps-
you WTF you wanted a light right??
hehe 5 stars great
man, this is bullshit not science...
By bornecu 1221502008 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removegoing out and buying a match box is too much easier , and it only works 1 time , but as a scientific experience , it's great
By Netwarrior 1219289472 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove10 minutes for 5 second fire lol
nice experiment
...to light a fire, you need a potato, a knife, salt, 2 wires, toothpaste and cotton. Nice experiment but i prefer to carry an extra lighter or even some matches...
