While humans have made countless discoveries since the dawn of man, many of them never would’ve been possible without the discovery of fire. It’s simple enough to build a fire at this point, since we have plenty of lighters and accelerants at our disposal, but what this person pulls off with a lemon and some nails is way more interesting than lighting a fire with the grill lighter you have in your junk drawer. (via Design Taxi) Sure, it isn’t really convenient to toast marshmallows over a lemon, but experiments like this give us new insight into the wonderfully bizarre world of science.

What is it about fire that has humans so mesmerized? Ever since its discovery, we’ve harnessed it for useful…and useless things. From setting 6,000 matches on fire to this video of a man lighting a match with another match, there are so many cool things you can do with fire. Then again, you probably shouldn’t try this at home… FIRE. YouTube While it’s totally cool to just watch, it’s also pretty useful if your match isn’t striking against the box!

Because Ivory soap has pockets of air and water inside of it, a solid bar of soap turns into a fluffy soap soufflé right in front of your eyes when heated. Your kids are sure to be amazed by this fun science experiment. Plus, your kitchen will smell like it just took a shower. Watch the video below to find out why this crazy phenomenon happens. After the soap has been microwaved, it’s still totally useable. In fact, you might even conserve more soap by using less in the shower. Pretty cool, huh?!
