    Professor Chris Bishop, presenter of the 2008 Royal Institution Christmas Lectures, gives a family lecture on the history of the modern firework.
    Through demonstrations of pyrotechnic chemistry hear how Chinese incendiaries made from honey led to the development of gunpowder; discover how the loud bangs of fireworks are routed in the origins of photography; and find out how an accident in a nineteenth-century kitchen sparked a new chemistry for firework making.
    Recorded at the University of Cambridge on the 4 November 2011.

Unfortunately, science teachers can’t do that. This lecture is expensive and to do this multiple times a day would be too costly. These are also just the highlights of an entire course. 95% of the course would be calculating the chemistry involved which is not as fun as the demonstration. Putting something together like this takes a lot of time that teachers don’t have. Most of our time is going to be spent grading your papers. This great for a 1 off presentation but impossible to do daily in a real educational setting. Just facing reality, science is mostly boring with the occasional awesomeness. You are just seeing the awesome parts here, just all at once.

@Mary Ann the Nytowl You've never heard of Stump-Out, have you?🤣 KNo3 is readily available at the hardware store, as is sulfur, and proper charcoal is easy enough to make with some willow branches packed in a sealed metal box which then gets placed in a fire, and nobody would question a kid wanting a rock tumbler😂. I was making black powder by age 12 and was getting into _much_ more energetic substances by age 14🤣. Now that I'm older I stick to safer stuff like rockets and fireworks lol.

Ultimately I created my own chemical business and the rest is history.

In a lot of ways I wish I was a child growing up in todays modern age. As a child I hated school and bunked off as often as I could get away with which left me in the lowest of the low forms. I did however make good my education after joining the Royal Navy and then the Ambulance service where I studied to become a Paramedic. Today learning is made such fun and so easy with programs like this and the Periodic Lectures to name but a few. Even at the age of 61 I still find learning fun. Thank you.

After watching his balloon explosions envolve different H and O's. I rememebered a time some 60 years ago, our science class teacher asking what would happen to such a balloon filled with H2 O. And for a volunteer to show it. Knowing H2O was the composition of water, and believing I'd get wet in the process, thus allowing me to go home. I raised my hand. Needless to say, pun intended; It blew me away. And frighten me half out of my wits.

... As Professor Bishop was setting up his experiment to see how long that line of his handmade gunpowder would take to burn through, the Eternal Boy Scout that still lives somewhere within me mentally set up to time the line's burn, using the classic silent "One-one thousand, Two-one thousand, Three-one thousand" & etc. technique ... and I got 8 seconds. When the good Professor guesstimated the burn time as *12* seconds, my jaw dropped. So, I grabbed a handy digital timer which I keep on my worktable, scrolled the video back and timed the burn time again ... *7 seconds,* and I was a smidge late starting the timer. ... Fair Point to me, I think. Seeing Lycopodium powder again brought back fond memories of elementary school science class. I was fascinated to learn that the powder was actually dried spores of the puffball fungus, which I'd seen for myself while stomping around the woods on camping trips. Being A Boy, when I espied some of the little round puffballs, I stomped them, and was surprised to see what looked for all the world to be a blast of fine dust come out. My science teacher further amazed me with the information that this very powder was what was first used as "flash powder" during Photography's early days. They sprinkled it into that T-shaped gizmo they would hold up during the photograph's exposure, and touch it off. But Lycopodium powder had one more fascinating trick ... my science teacher half-filled a beaker with water, sprinkled some of the powder into it, and it all floated on the surface. None of it seemed to be mixing with the water. My teacher chose me to come up, and just dip my forefinger into the water, right through the powder, up to the second knuckle, and then pull my finger back up and out ... because she knew my reaction would be priceless ... and it was. My jaw literally dropped, because my finger remained *absolutely dry.* ... Now armed with a little knowledge and therefore dangerous, the very next camping trip I went out on, I made sure that I was carrying my little waterproof cannister of phosphorous-tipped (strikes on anything) wood matches, and you just *know* what's coming, don't you? I found the most amazing close grouping of three nice, round puffballs, and with my fellow Scouts wondering what the Hell I was up to, I got a match at the ready, quickly mentally rehearsed what you already know I pulled off, stomped as hard as I could on the three puffballs, the spores exploded up and out into the air, and I struck the match. The brilliant flash of flame and light that resulted got even more of the reaction I'd hoped for ... my fellow Scouts were looking at me like I had suddenly sprouted *horns* from my forehead, or something. They couldn't get over it, and that night, we were all sneaking around in the woods, stomping and detonating all the puffballs we could find. What that must have looked like from a distance must have been magical. I seriously doubt that there was a single puffball left intact within a half-mile radius that night ... and in the dark, that flash was simply *spectacular.* I'll be 67 next month, and my lifelong love of Science has served me wonderfully well throughout my last 42 years of making multimedia art. Creative effects are merely the Onstage of what's *really* going on *Backstage.*

... You might be right about that. Back in the late '60's, you could buy a smallish container of saltpeter at your friendly neighborhood drugstore. It was sold as a diuretic, but I and my goofily diabolical buddies had *other* plans. Also at the drugstore you could buy "flowers of sulphur", which was sold as a laxative. For the charcoal, we ground up a couple of briquets intended for backyard barbecues. Guesstimating the prescribed proportions as best we could, we mixed it all up, and then poured out a 1" thick line on my house's asphalt driveway (mistake), and lit 'er up. Worked like a charm. Yet as excited as our youthful testosterone got us, we weren't dumb enough to try for an actual explosion by packing the stuff into something. The lit line did a job on the driveway's asphalt, but quick thinking fixed the problem by waiting for the molten asphalt to cool somewhat, and then stomping it back into it's original form, more or less. And believe it or not, we were all so amazed by the stuff's power that we genuinely couldn't think of anything to do with it that wouldn't be too dangerous ... so we carefully poured it all into a bucket, wet it down using the garden hose, and then power-blasted the resultant slurry with the hose until it was watered down, and ran down into the lawn, where we throughly power-blasted it again to further dilute it. Then we worried that it would kill the lawn, but it didn't. Quite the opposite, the lawn *loved it* ... and for some years afterwards, that part of the lawn was much lusher, and greener than the rest. We all showed some solid common sense that day, and that's a good memory. We had a great time, and afterwards, could still count to 10 on our fingers. Crazy, just a little. *Stupid,* not at all.

Did you miss the profile of the "shell" the red and blue balls would be what ever effect the pyrotechnician wants, they're not just in a ring, but in a layer surrounding the "bursting charge", so that they are spread about evenly(ish) when the charge goes off.

Nitrocellulose is used to make lacquer. It is dissolved in solvents, resins are added to give the paint different characteristics, chemicals called plasticizers may be added in addition to the resins to the coating more flexibility, and pigment is added to give it color and hiding power. It is shipped in large drums where it is wetted, that is soaked in alcohol, or an alcohol water mixture. Old fashioned movie film stock called "celluloid" (trade name) is nothing more than nitrocellulose with some additives, most commonly camphor. You can imagine how flammable the film is. It also degrades with time as it breaks down and becomes discolored (turns brown) by the nitrates.

Advice for young people: Keep away from fireworks! I know that I am a wet blanket, but you have absolutely no idea of how powerful they can be. In a recent accident, a professional set off mortars that were not properly buried. The bursting charge DETONATED just as it cleared the ground but was still inside the top of the metal mortar. A piece of steel broke off of the mortar and killed a man standing more than 200 meters away. Explosives are unforgiving. They can be set off by many things, sparks, heat, or even impacts. They give no warning. I know that fooling around with fireworks LOOKS like fun, but the best time to quit is before you start, while you still have all of your fingers and both eyes. Trust me on this.

In my original post I said "I sure hope those shells were just models". If those shells are live shells, and this guy was foolish enough to light other devices anywhere near them, then he put everyone in that lecture hall in incredible danger. If any of those shells went off that room would have been filled with hot burning stars. The bang, if they were salutes, would have injured numerous people from the concussion alone. Watch the video towards the middle. Those shells look live to me.
