--------------------------

The best lessons for me at school were the science classes in which the instructor was making something explode.  I remember one day, the chemistry teacher donning his safety glasses and putting a perspex wall between us and a dish of water.

Pffft, water? Where's the fire dude, this is gonna be lame.

The first element he added fizzed a bit.

The second one fizzed a lot and popped.

The third one he dropped in was Potassium, at arms length, and in less than a second it seemed to jump out of the tray and a bang accompanied a white flash. 

> Do it again!!!

I'm not allowed, that stuff is expensive.

-------------------------------

For the chance to win 1000 STEM (which could well be doubled if we get some engagement here), make something go pop - the louder the better!

- Short video (youtube, 3speak, dtube, etc), a quick intro to what materials you have if not obvious
- Loudest pop/bang/reaction has the best chance of winning
- Lots of votes for decent efforts
- Extra points for safety goggles
- Use #science and #geeks-contest so I can find your post
- Don't blow yourself up please, be safe and professional!

Good luck!
