Just imagine how crazy you'd look if you have guests over, a fire starts in your kitchen, and you start throwing your decorations at it with absolutely no effect 🤣

[Trandhal]

For those that don't know, if you have a grease/oil fire in a pot or pan in your kitchen NEVER pour liquid on it, especially not water. The water will sink through the oil and instantly evaporate and expand, which will shoot burning grease/oil all over the place. That's where the fireball came from when Tyler used the first extinguisher.

If you have a grease/oil fire in your kitchen, TURN OFF THE HEAT, then put a LID on the pot (killing the fire), CAREFULLY PUSH the pot away from the hot stoveplate, and then just leave it to cool down.

Idk why but I always imagined that Tyler films these out in the woods by himself so someone throwing the green ball to him just shattered everything I’ve ever known

[donutves]

I love how the grease fire just spawns in like a boss level

[dadolphinplayz]

how to properly use a fire blanket:
1) open the case
2) find the holding straps
3) make sure your hands are also inside the blanket to prevent burns on hands
4) hold the blanket in front of you to protect yourself
5) approach the fire (still with blanket infront of you)
6) put the blanket over the fire

For the product meant to be used under the hood of the car, the product isn't putting the fire out with the chemical, its meant to remove the oxygen. In a relatively closed space like under a hood, it would work a lot better.

[CookingWithCows]

Tyler, most throwable fire extinguishers are for closed rooms, not outside environments. The CO2 released by the liquids or the powder is supposed to fill the room, suffocating the fire, instead of being blown away by the wind or having constant replenishment of oxygen from the air.

These were fairly good tests because the basis of them is a layperson understanding of how these are used from the advertisements. However, I would advise maybe reaching out to your local fire department and seeing if they would be willing to help coordinate a review of some of these products under "actual" conditions. For example, the hood product might actually function differently under the hood of a car and the local fire department usually has access to cars that they rig to blow for training purposes.

The firefighting "Pokeballs" have been around since the 1800's, usually a liquid or powder chemical fire retardant in a large round glass ampoule that you'd throw at the base of the fire like how you aim modern extinguishers.

There's a reason they've been around for hundreds of years but you never see them and most people have never heard of them.

One of the local firehouses near me has a display inside of various things including some original fire balls and the fancy carrying case they came in(I think it was fancy). They've probably got some horribly cancerous chemical filling them like liquid Carbon Tet.

[collectingonthecheap]

After this, I want to see him open different biscuit tubes and see which one has the loudest or most startling pop.

[tanner]

the AFO balls are meant for a smaller confined space from what I have seen when they were first on the market the commercial shows them being used for the trunk of a car, trash can, oven, and other small spaces were the powder can be effective and not blow away and probably more for a regular fire situation not an outdoor gas fire. the way it works is the force of the charge helps to blow out the fire along with dispersing the fire retardant powder to smother the remaining flames

[GermanJet]

I think one of the biggest "gripes" i would have is that the outside condition was way too windy for these types of products. my thought is that they would be more used for an indoor scenario... but that first one should be removed from market or relabeled so that it doesn't include grease fires... as everyone else states, way too dangerous and alternatives are much more effective.

[andycorb]

Whilst entertaining, I do wish he would read the instructuons on these things to understand what sort of fires they are designed to put out. Most of his tests were indeed entertaining but wrong conditions.
Keep up the good work Tyler 😆

“You never want to start a fire with gasoline” *immediately proceeds to start a gasoline fire*

[jeremybutler]

The AFO is widely used and is very successful for small contained fires. I am in the laser engraving community and know of several people who have saved not only their laser but their shops with them.

[andraslorincz]

That spray kind of fire extinguisher caused the fireball with the oil, because the extinguishing agent is liquid. So it evaporates as soon as it hits the oil, and with the expansion of the steam it also vaporizes the fuel of the fire: the oil in this case. Wich will burn more rapidly, since it's have a larger surface area to contact with the heat and the air. You can do the same thing with candlewax and water. I did it a lot when I was a kid outside in the backyard

[tymosher]

Well the fact the 2nd extinguisher is designed to go under the hood of your car (a small enclosed space" I'd imagine it would actually work pretty good if it actually goes off lol

[claudebarnum]

"Just throw a cup of water on it", lol. I literally said to myself "might as well use a water balloon". Good video dude.

[blackmaxima]

That fire blanket is really intended for stove fires. They’re intended to be left on the pan until it cools down. They seem to be more common in the UK. I’ve got one in my kitchen but never had to try it.
