Teabag experiment:
1. teabag
1. tray
1. matchbox (with matches)
Yes you do have to do it inside, cause the slightest breeze ruins knocks it over.
note: Even though the clip shows it being burnt on the side, I advise you start at the top (where you twisted the teabag)
otherwise it overbalances the teabag and it falls over ruining the experiment. I went through 3 before I got it to work because of this.
It works, even better if you have some friends to watch,
especially younger ones since Anything involving setting fire to something is exciting lol .

That is obvious. Hot air rises.
What I'm about to say is serious and not a stupid joke.
You can test if hot air rises by farting. You can also see the hot air rise when you're taking a shower. When you are taking a piss (the hot air from the urine rises). Steam from a boiler. Simple experiments without the use of a teabag, tray and matchbox.

While it was cool, her explanation was pretty darned juvenile

Yeah, it was pretty poor - 'It becomes light enough to defy gravity'!!! Get a clue woman
Seen this a few times in pubs using paper napkins instead.

It's still more fun to burn something and watch it fly away without a breeze, especially when younger kids are watching lol.
Yea JD her explanation was bad, awefull even...
That's neat...gotta try sometime...
