Hot air balloon!



We need:
  1. Balloon
  2. Gauze
  3. Flask
  4. Meths Burner
  5. Matches
  6. Tripod
  7. Ice cube
First we needed to stretch the balloon so that we can make the polymer
stretch out so that it would not break apart. After that, we got ice cubes and started
to rub it with our hands so it could fit in the flask. Then we safely lit the meths burner.
After we did that, we place it under the tripod safely just in case we could get burnt.
Then we placed the gauze on top of the meth and tripod. Once we finished, we placed
the balloon on the top of the flask and then the magic started. The balloon started to
inflate. A few minutes later we carefully put the cap back on the meth burner and the
balloon slowly started to deflate.
