We had a professor do this in a large vessel and burned her forearm and had to go the emergency room a few years ago.  She will never do this demo again!

Just a quick yes or no, please.  Would you lump the "Safe Barking Dog Demo" in the same category as the Rainbow Demo & Tornado Demo (i.e., it is an open flame demo, where additional flammable fuel -- let's say 95% ethanol -- could be added to an already confined ignited situation, therefore it is not prudent to perform, especially at a local grade school).  We are having a discussion about it.

 

Here are two links that show/explain it:

 

 

Thanks.
