When I was a kid we just dumped nail polish on the sidewalk and lit it on fire.
hawaiianwebsurfer

This is how I like my gifs. Long and split up. I like seeing the end of the middle before the beginning and also the end.

Is this how ISIS is going to blow up the White House?

I made a tutorial about how to make match rockets once. They were a bit different though. /a/4U8n0

Yes, oddly satisfactory

Close the box!

So is there a match head in the tip of the rocket, or are the pyrolysis products sufficient to propel it?
bubdub
there's a match head in the end of the rocket.
BrotherhoodOfTheTaco
what happens if you put more than one match head? I'm very curious to know if anyone has tried it.
Squossifrage
Maybe you should have included the part that shows how the rockets are built...
bubdub
or you could watch the video
bubdub
The part that shows how the rocket is built is the entire video. This is just to show the cool end result.

Never show a boy a new trick with fire. We will do it. Guaranteed.

Why is this getting downvoted? I love this.
TRUCKERm
Because there is no wind so they are having unecessary mass with the wings. IT COULD FLY HIGHER

Learning is bad for you, that's why.

It has one downvote as of right now. But, I guess technically you're right.

OMG ONE DOWNVOTE... BLASPHEMOUS!!!

Ah.

I created the gifs directly here using the imgur video to gif converter, but if someone else has posted the video before I havent seen it.

Oh Oh! I used to make these as a kid!!
whatevenarecats
Well, simpler ones. You wrap foil around the head of the match, with two pins, and then remove the pins to create the jet holes
OhFuckItWasTaken
I remember me and an old school friend found these and made them. I think i set him on fire twice and he burned my hair off all in one night

Don't you see the potential there? I count at least 13 warheads. Do you know what havoc a Nork can make? Just bringing one box into the US?

Who the heck can aluminum up THAT masterpiece? And wait for that candle to heat that thing? And not buy bottle rockets?

I tried to make it one gif, but the imgur video to gif option limits it to 15 seconds. :(

Looks great on my mobile. Appreciate that it isn't in ten parts!

At least it didn't mess up the aspect ratio on your video. I did one and it just squished the video down to 1/2 height.

Huh. Yep, funky.

Then how come I've seen gifs on here that are up to 2 minutes long?
bubdub
Must be made somewhere else
Rezol
Because they are gifs. The video files known as .webm are limited to 15 seconds on most sites you can host them on.
SpaceForceOne
You can post much longer gifs that you already have, but you can only use imgur's converter to make up to 15 second gifs.

I've been doing this since I was little, you can just wrap it around the stick and twist the end and it works just fine
