More extreme flashlight videos for the nay-sayers

Ok, so I got all kinds of comments on my last video about not wearing shoes, not making the video believable enough, "It's not possible", and many more colorful phrases which I'll not post here.

The point is, many don't believe that this flashlight will light things on fire. So, I set out to make a few more videos to try to quiet down those that are clamoring for more videos.

This first video is me showing some of the flashlight, that it really is a flashlight, it really does shine, and it really does light the paper on fire from a few inches away (rather than being right on top of the paper, and getting a "whoosh!" of fire right away).



The second video, below, shows me lighting another ball of paper on fire, and I'm trying to make it as believable as possible. I'm not sure what else I can do, but at least I'm wearing shoes in this one!



The Extreme Muscle Car videos will be coming soon. It's been raining here lately and as you can imagine, it's hard to showcase 900 horsepower on wet pavement...

Gives a whole new meaning to the name "SureFire". :-)

What kind of run times can you expect with an over clocked projector bulb like that?

Runtime is on the order of a few minutes, but it gets entirely too hot to hold before the batteries give up...
