    Molotov cocktails involve fire. And alcohol.
    Grapes do not.
    Neither do eggs.
    Nor are either of these "weapons" intended for arson.

    I know they're usually done with hard liquor, but the idea is amusing that it could possibly be done with wine, without even fermenting the grapes. ;D

    Hey guys,
    Remember what I said my favourite game was?
    (Bumping ridiculously old threads, for good reason).
    Well.
    New property of grapes discovered by me, get!

    Abstract:
    Grape are tool of destruction.

    Process:
    Held grape over a candle for a couple of minutes
    On a skewer.

    Result:
    The grape skin burst in one spot,
    And began to release a small stream of flammable gas,
    Which looked pretty awesome.
    WARNING!
    This turned out to be incomplete combustion,
    And after some 20 minutes of my starring at fire emitting grapes,
    Caused my Carbon Monoxide detector to go off.

    The science:
    I'd guess,
    The gas is probably either ethane or methane,
    Seeing as it burned a yellowish orange.

    Was it worth it:
    Yes.

    I once roasted a grape over a candle and ate it...
    It was... interesting.

    When I grow up,
    I'm going to be a necromancer.
    Because I can cast raise dead on threads.
    And grapes.
