I use the cab video in chemistry class when we talk about reaction rates. Airborne powders are almost as fast in their reaction rates as gases because of the huge surface area. We think of factory explosions like this as being a nineteenth century thing. That this was recent is really jarring.

Walt Disney World used Cremora Light for their dragaon flame effects at the Fantastia show at Epcot. It is remarkably flammable once aerosolized but inert while compact. Just blow some from your hand into a flame to create an amazing and brief dragon’s breath!
