Daaayum! Never tried tossing corn still on the cob in a fire. Whoda guessed they would all go off at the same time?? But, even without That little hiccup, what was he expecting? And why have the door open? It's people like that who made the fun little bottle rockets illegal.
I don't think it's the kernels all going off at the same time. It's the moisture contained in the cob reaching boiling point and then the cob fails...catastrophically.

DeleteI saw that coming and not even a thermal dynamics wizard.
ReplyDeleteToo freaking weird. I JUST started the first fire of the year in my wood insert, and while I'm trying to get it to temperature, I watch this video.
ReplyDeleteMakes sense! It's The First cob failure I've seen..

I'm waiting for something to go to Hell so I can use that.
Was this fresh corn or dried corn? I had no idea corn would do that in a stove; I figured it would pop or burn like everything else.

The kernel he knocked off the cob on to the top of the heater rattled. The ear must have been dried.
