Fucking clickbait headlines.

Dumbasses aside, thank you for the explanation
It’s essentially hydrogen combustion, so it has nothing to do with a hydrogen bomb (which is fusion). Still shitty clickbait.

Really good point
“WOW Local Man STRIKES a MATCH, which reached TemperaTures of MORE THAN 500°C !! 🤯”
That is really how headlines like that sound. Stop writing crap like that. Who becomes a journalist just to write clickbait, seriously?
Sorry for the hate OP, but please post a headline which is less clickbaity. It does not paint the article in a good light, no matter how interesting the subject might be.
Noobs. I have a MAPP gas/oxygen torch that burns at 2900° C in my garage.
Wow, that’s only 200 degrees cooler than the sparklers I bought at 11 cents a piece.
