Many great scientists like Albert Einstein and Marie Curie were inspired as children. Hopefully Dr Roger’s Home Experiments – conducted by the Telegraph’s Science Editor, Roger Highfield – will help to inspire the next generation of inventors.

gosh, im holding my breath for the safety of the poor girl

This guy shouldn't even be doing this, in the info it said that "will help to inspire the next generation of inventors" showing them that a water balloon won't pop while being held under a candle will totally inspire a 3 year old!!

Get a pin
See if that pops it -
Amazing
-
Daisy just the cutest little girl! She made my day.
-

Here's a question for Roger Highfield….Can the balloon handle a low temperature for long enough to get the water boiled, turned into a gas, increase the pressure inside the balloon, and thereby increase the size of the balloon?
I assume a typical latex balloon shouldn't melt even if the water is boiling at 100C -
That little girl is Soo cute!;)
-
The poor child.
-
lol the girl is standing there and she like has no idea what the hell is that guy doing

@gulfland the purpose of life cannot be found in any scripture, only the means to control mankind.. or should i say the means to attempt to control mankind.

I got more scared of the old man shouting than the ballon popping.
-
She's totally cute
-
i was expecting daisy to fall off the table taking the candle, and jug of water with her..!
-
*laughs at the thought of the video ending right as the balloon popped*

@ApocaIypse Daisy is not amused. She did a wonderful job though.
