This is a very dangerous thing to do with or without a parent at hand. The video makes it look like a simple little experiment with a small flame contained by the can. Without detailed instructions on how to set that experiment up, it doesn't take much of a mistake to make a large fire which could burn the people in the video. Too bad the details of amounts and preparation was not explained.

Plus, if an adult did try that then it would really suck f the kid breathed in directly after the explosion, they would be breathing in fire, not good.
