Social media is no stranger to daring experiments and creative hacks, but a recent video showing a man turning a heavy water can into a rocket using just LPG gas has taken the internet by storm. The video, shared by internet personality Ashu Ghai, has quickly gone viral, leaving viewers both amazed and curious about the science behind the stunt.

In the video, the man demonstrates a clever yet risky method to launch a water can. He begins by connecting a small LPG cylinder to a pipe, which is then inserted into a water bottle. The cylinder releases LPG gas in liquid form into the bottle, and the man then pours the gas from the bottle into a larger water can. As pressure builds up inside the can, he turns it upside down, causing it to shoot into the air like a rocket.

Action Reaction Forces

Ashu Ghai explains the science behind the experiment in simple steps:

– Vaporisation Creates Pressure: When LPG is poured into a water bottle, the liquid quickly vaporises due to the lower pressure outside the cylinder. This rapid vaporisation generates a high volume of gas in a short time, increasing pressure inside the bottle.

– Action-Reaction Effect: Once the bottle is inverted, water moves to the mouth of the bottle while the high-pressure gas escapes. The escaping gas pushes the water out forcefully in the opposite direction, propelling the can upwards.

– This experiment, while educational, also demonstrates a dramatic example of action and reaction forces in physics.

Internet Reacts

The video has impressed millions of viewers, who have flooded the comments section with excitement and admiration. One user wrote, “Rule number one, never miss Ashu Sir’s videos.” Another commented, “I’m not a science student, but your experiments are making me love science.” Some reactions also mixed humour with awe, with one user jokingly asking, “What did America say? Who are you? Today, we ask, Who are you?”

A user said, “Call from Rohit Shetty sir. Ashu, you are selected for Khatron ke Khiladi.”

A Mix of Fascination and Caution

While the video is being praised for its creativity and educational value, it has also sparked discussions about safety. Experts caution that experiments involving LPG gas are extremely dangerous and should never be attempted without proper safety measures.
