but before you try this at home, be warned: it's not a safe experiment for dry areas. gav and dan had to dampen down the grass to prevent any accidents. they also experimented with different settings, like wide open shutter and lower frame rates, to get the perfect shot.

the slow mo guys' video is not just a visual spectacle, it's also a lesson in physics. the sparks flying from the wire wool are a result of the air rushing through it, creating a catherine wheel effect. it's a reminder of the power of fire and the beauty of science.
