So true that

When I was a kid I made rockets out of cans of spray paint. I would sit them on an angle and light a candle under the plastic tip, then run to a safe distance. Preferably behind a tree. Once the plastic tip melted off the spray paint would come shooting out and ignite. Sometimes they would explode on the launch pad, other times they would fly in a corkscrew 50 or 60 feet. Once one exploded in mid air. I imagined I was testing V-2 rockets, and this explained the high failure rate. I lived way out in the country and would have to wait for my mom to leave. Otherwise I would have been in lots of trouble.

I liked playing with matches in my younger years. When my own kids were young, I showed them matches, how they burned, and explained about the pain and destruction they could cause. Then I told them if they ever wanted to play with matches they could ask me for some and 'play' safely on the brick paved area in the backyard. Strangely enough, neither ever wanted to play with matches; I was a little disappointed.

You sir, know how to make a fantastic video. The right pace, good presentation, bits of humor, and the idea is interesting, simple, cheap, doable. Hats off to ya.

Thanks for the fun video. I remember making match head rockets over 50 years ago with my brothers on our front porch. Best we ever did was about 15 feet or so. Thanks for the improved design suggestions, and now off to buy some matches. :-)

This was great! I've never seen this type of design before, and those tape fins are ingenious, simple, effective and beautiful! When I was a kid in the mid 70s, I made match rockets out of paper matches, with foil wrapped around the head, and used a pin to slip between the cardboard of the match and the foil to provide a "nozzle" for the exhaust. My launcher was a simple bent-up paperclip. I would cut additional match heads to insert before wrapping in foil for a more powerful engine. I remember them shooting pretty far, but probably not 60 feet! I even mounted them to little paper airplanes to create a miniature jet plane. Oh, to be young again.

Nice work, simple steps, great details 👍👍

Just brilliant! Informative, concise, great camera work - thank you so much!

When I was around 10 years old we lived in Mexico. My mother was a Spanish teacher and she went to college for the summer in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon. The small matches were different there than they were here in the States. Here we had small slide open boxes of wooden matches. There, they had small matches with round paper shafts coated in wax. The first time I ever saw someone shoot a match rocket was there in Mexico. The fellow took three of these Mexican matches and took some foil from his cigarette package wrapping it tightly around the match heads. Then he bent the legs to make a tripod look. He placed another lit match under the center of the rocket and off it went! I've never been the same since and I vow to never grow up! LOL. Great video! I've got to try this with three or four match heads in a larger rocket!

I loved how you did a sort of "How its Made" lazy susan shot 😂

Dipping each piece of the coat hanger in cooking oil would ensure an even tighter air envelope between the rocket and the launch rod. In addition it would reduce the friction during the launch. It is just an idea. For the maximum distance the launch rod needs to be at an angle of 45 degrees with respect to its launching flat surface.

@Tributary House Ltd. It's a 70's term for "Joint". I know. I spent my formative teen years ALL THE WAY through the 70's. Good Times -- GOOD TIMES. By the way, as kids, we used to take paper matches from match books, cover the head of a match tightly with a little bit of foil, then torch the head of the "Missile" with another match and these baby's could travel 15 to 20 FEET. But not ALWAYS. The average flight distance was about 10 to 15 feet. Sometimes more -- sometimes less, depending on how well you made them. We would set up a tissue paper fort and fire off the rockets at the enemy's fort and sometimes we could set the other fort on fire. That was how we determined the winner. Like I said --- Good Times -- GOOD TIMES. And we weren't little PUSSIES that had to go to our "Safe Spaces". We lived life DANGEROUSLY back in the day. Good Times -- GOOD TIMES. . .

I did this 35 years ago when you could smoke at work in the lunch room. I used the paper book matches, ( the whole paper match) for foil used the cigarette foil and covered the whole match and used a tooth pick laid on the match while raping the foil to create a channel for the gases to escape. you would have to make adjustments to the channel by pinching the foil just behind the match head. Pull the toothpick out set the home made rocket slightly over hanging over the soda can point, and with a lighter held the flam under the tip of the rocket. it would go 15 to 20 feet and you did not know witch way it was going. It was a kick, got people to laugh, dodging these little rockets, those were the days!

It gives it a slightly longer burn time, for more distance. If you use too much, it chokes it off and you fizzle out. If you use just the rigth amount, it practically doubles the flight distance and speed. Using a paper match from a standard matchbook, I shot one all the way across a restaurant one time. It had to be 25+ feet from our booth to the cashier. We were on total opposite sides of the building.
