Or, poor man's liquid nitrogen. I'm in college, but unfortunately no chem classes, nor do I have the money for a Dewar's of my own to have filled. I heard of this technique from a friend of a teacher's son's maid..or something, it was a while ago.

This is a lot like wbeaty's demo on "Poor man's "Liquid Nitrogen" Youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d11TFkeqbwY. He even describes that it will stick to you like napalm in his description. If you were inspired to make an Instructable because you saw hid demo, you really should give some credit to where you got the idea from.

He said up top he got it from that youtube video, and he put the guy who made it too. i admit it's not obvious, but it's there. (plus it's fun shattering things with it.)

I also put a bit on my fingertip when I made napalm, this was to feel the viscosity of it I presume that the author as I, did this before testing the burn characteristics of napalm.
