We used to put Lye and Aluminum Foil in a Glass container(hydrogen) and catch the fumes in a balloon. Tape a fire cracker to the balloon and it makes a Big Bang. We quit after a few short fuse episodes. We also made acetylene balloons but we had to stop when the Old Man thought he was being in an artillery attack .
