Default Next time you see bubbles in the lake ice...try this.

This is interesting. Wonder how many of our lakes have this occurring. I know Wizard lake SW of Edmonton used to be like this. Might still be.

Pretty cool. If I tried that I'd have no eyebrows and my coat would probably be melted to my arm!

Cool. Wonder why we never see clips of women doing this kind of stuff.
Skateboard fails, jumping out of things, etc.?

Precisely what makes Battle, Abraham, Devil's and Wizard hazardous to drive on. It's not just streams and inlets you need to worry about - it's these gas pockets common to their geology.

An auto blow torch would of been my ignition source with a short piece of wire to poke a quick hole. I too was expecting an explosion with every match strike. Cool video.
