That, while not advisable, would probably be safe... Jet fuel does not burn very fast from what I remember...

Pretty much the same as K1 Kerosene, just a little more refined.

Now rocket fuel on the other hand! Any one have some LOX we can use as an oxidizer?

Or to be really clever, C4 burns real well. Just don't burn and then stomp it out. :-)

I'm still waiting on JP-4 with some LOX squirted in at the last second. *grins* But that should be done by remote.

Hmmm, the tricky part would be the liquid oxygen (LOX). I suppose I could condense it out of the air with liquid nitrogen.

Wait a minute, NASA is nearby! They've got to have a tank of LOX somewhere...

p.s. I did my New Year's Eve fireworks shopping today. grin I've been going to the same place for ten years, they get HUGE smiles when they see me show up and greet me with, "Hey, you survived!"

If you cannot find or condense the LOX, perhaps you could try it with nitrous, which should not be too hard to find. I think I remember an episode of Mythbusters when they created a rocket using nitrous and that it worked.
