Into the Void

moar funny pictures

George H. Gobel is an engineering professor at Purdue. Back in 1996 or so, he was attempting to design the perfect method for lighting a barbeque. After many trials and the occasional error, he settled on liquid oxygen (LOX) as a lighter fluid. Brilliant idea! The coals are perfect!

However, the barbeque grill was vaporized.

With the 4th of July coming up in a couple of weeks I thought I’d resurrect them.

DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME! Turkey fryers are SO much safer…

Have a safe and happy 4th of July.
