Because you're being pretentious.


Ok on to a different but similar question: How much percentage of alcohol is needed in a drink for it to catch fire? Eg. Can most wines do it?
Sorry my English is also pretty poor tonight.

Hardly fail, would still pass an exam with that.

You fail at marking.

If you use a wick you need a lot less alcohol, as it gets vaporised then burnt.

other wise you need a pretty high concentration or heat it till it vaporises.

alcohol needs to be 100 proof to light which i think is ~50% ABV though there are some under that which will light such as sambuca...

i doubt any wine would set on fire

edit- i did a search and apparantly you can set wine on fire, you're meant to boil it first or something o_o
edit 2- ok now i want to know what art project you are doing which requires wine and fire :p

We managed to flame thrower a glass bottle so long it exploded all over the place. Flame throwered so much stuff. The good old days. I really couldn't give a **** how dangerous it was, it was fun :)

Well, if you have such low standards, then I pity you. One should always strive for more, not merely accept a passable standard.

I don't fail at marking, I merely have standards.

There is no O2 in the can, so even if a flame did get inside (which it won't) it wouldn't catch fire/explode.

What does happen is the valve melts and you're left with an uncontrollable flame-thrower slash rocket.
 
Proof is actually a better measure in the context of this thread, as 100% proof will catch fire under standard conditions, and 99.999999% will not.
