Wow! I wish I could do cool experiments like this one for my students.

 

A chemistry teacher wowed his class by setting the floor on fire during a lesson.

The risky stunt was captured on camera by a student and shows the teacher standing at the front of the classroom in America holding a flaming test tube.

The compound used in the demonstration is liquid methane, which as it boils releases a flammable gas.
