Hairspray
Mark Queijo brought his spud gun on our camping trip, and we used it multiple times during the day, and once at night. For those who don’t know, and since this video has mostly audio, a spud gun is a bazooka-shaped thing made of plumbing pipe and one flint igniter. You cram your potato down the barrel, just as you would shot into a musket, and then you spray a combustible propellant like AquaNet into the back end. As quickly as you can, you screw the plastic back on and flick the flint. If all goes well, the spark ignites the hair spray, the hair spray goes kaboom, and the potato goes into low earth orbit.
Here’s our only night time test. If you listen closely you’ll hear quite a few laugh out loud lines (at least I did), and you might even get the gist of what happened when the back end blows off .
A black-screen spud-gun movie. Lots of comments and laughs, though, so something must have happened, even if I can’t see it. Did something go wrong in the filming or the transfer to you-tube?

We could see what we were up to but there wasn’t enough light for the camera.

An actual legitimate use for night vision mode and we neglected to invoke it … ? Figures …

It’s so much better left up to your imagination.
