will party poppers pull fireworks work?

[majjck]

Yes, they should. They are equivelant in size and power, so the results should be the same.

Despite the fact its late at night I decided that since I have thousands of this little poppers I must try this and I must say there quite loud I'm glad I had my shoes on so I could run lol. another method of making these is to take the powder out of ring caps for toy guns and sandwich the powder of 5-8 between 2 coins it goes a bit easier but these are by far more powerful

[majjck]

you can find them in firework stores, or stores thst sell lots of prank items. Try a magic shop.

Pretty cool, why not use pennies though???

[majjck]

Good question. Well, pennies are small in diameter and the ring-shaped pulling firework may be to big for those little pennies to be sandwiched in. Plus, the nickels are thicker and contain more mass which means that upon impact, the nickel's inertia will push on the popper, blowing it up. Pennies may not have the mass to do this. Anyway, thanks for the comment!
