EXPLODING ASHTRAY PRANK...

This is a great gag to help smokers kick the habit or just have a few laughs.My friends have had a lot of fun doing this at a local cigar shop.

Step 1 Materials

All you need to pull off this little prank is some magician's Flash Cotton.This is a special type of chemically treated cotton that burns very quickly and produces a bright flash of fire. Flash Cotton is used by magicians to produce various pyrotechnic effects (readily available at your local magic shop or online).

Materials:
1.Flash Cotton
2.Dirty ashtray
3.Victim (smoker)

Nice prank idea. Sadly, the only person I know who i could pull it on is my girlfriend, and she doesn't take too kindly to practical jokes.

That must be too bad, you get a mouth full of liquid smoke on every smooch.

Yeah,my friend Eric owns a cigar shop here in Phoenix and he pulls this one all the time. I wish I could claim credit but he invented it.

I am gonna do this in the ash tray at 7-11, teach them lazy employees a lesson.

Cooooool!!! Have to see about getting some flash cotton, my mother's a smoker and I just want to do something like this... :P

Hey there.Flash Cotton is available on eBay or you can purchase some at your local magic shop.I also have some on my website at ; www.mindseyemagic.com Really fun stuff.

This is like one I read years ago. Gun cotton is kind of visible but if you use gunpowder or fine black powder it blends in with the ash.

that could hurt though

[mindseyemagic]

Well,Flash Cotton and Gun Cotton are totally different materials.Flash Cotton is very safe and easy to hide by sprinkling a little cigarette ash on it.

[mindseyemagic]

Hey.Actually,Gun cotton is a completely different material to the best of my knowledge.I don't think the two are related at all.

Oops, typo. That was supposed to say flash cotton. I was just thinking of several different explosives at once.
