I agree with you Lois. There are much better, greener and safer ways to teach
chemistry and the "go boom" stuff should be avoided.

There are several You tube versions of this. I show the video and explain that
I'm an olld poop who is exceptionally safety conscious. I prefer environmental
chem over uncontrolled exothermic reactions.
I have seen this done in an ignition tube with a 5 ft flame shooting out the
end.

Hello. I am contemplating doing a demo with gummi bear and potassium
chlorate; however, I am a bit chicken. Could you give me any info on this?
Has any one done this?
Thanks,

I apologize for this listing: I usually read the notices I read with a more
critical eye before sending them to the list-serve. I guess the holiday season
highs made me miss this. The response I got indicates how shop you guys are.
Sorry, and Happy New Year.
