Introduction: Holding Fire

This trick is really simple and easy to do, but also dangerous.(So be careful) It uses a few simple materials and can be done in under five minutes.

Step 1: Supplies

To do this simple trick you will need...

A bottle of hand sanitizer

A lighter

A cup of water

A cotton ball(Optional)

Step 2: Lighting the Hand Sanitizer

To light the hand sanitizer, squirt a glob of it on to a concrete floor. Next, carefully light the glob with the lighter. The sanitizer will now be on fire.

Step 3: Grabbing the Fire

To grab the fire, dunk your hand in water and then carefully scoop the fire into your hand.(It stays alight for about five seconds)

Step 4: Fireball

Another cool way to hold fire is the fireball. To make the fireball, you infuse gas from a lighter into the cotton ball. Then you light it and scoop it up. You are now done, be careful!
