AHGHARH god dammit

we were meant to do a fire twirling performance with staff at our school social but weve been told no fire

ahgrh

they allow glowsticks though

how many 5 inch glowsticks would be required to soak a cloth that covers a staff with a 4 inch wick?

would it look any good at all?

even in lit places?

its at night the event

please help!!!

(/me extremely pissed off at ppl with authoirty)

I have been told, This is not me, I take no credit for this, that glow stick juice only lasts for minutes once it has been exposed to air. Why don't you just attach glowsticks to the end of your staff or do what thingy does (Fairie firebell) and fill a plastic tube up with glow staicks and plug up the ends. that looks great.hope this helps.
peace out

They only last a few minutes when you take the juice out of the plastic.

Well, true that it sucks to not be able to use fire at your school social. Also true is that it's probably a good idea not to So your school adminastrators were smart in doing that [heck i know my school admins would never let me even think of spinning fire at a social]. As for using glowstick juice... I don't know what type of glowstick you're using [uranium rod maybe???] but none of mine last longer than 15 minutes exposed to air. and they're completely faded after those 15 minutes.

when i was in the 6th grade i played with one of those glowstick, i cracked it up and poured some on my arm, it didnt hurt at all, really! is was kinda cool, looked like some weird mutant blood or something back then (I WAS ONLY 10 YEARS OLD damnit!!)... anyway, i still have some marks from that accident, it has some weirdass effect on ur skin... too good it was only a couple of spots..
so i guess its pretty toxic and it DOESNT run off after 10 mins... or maybe thats just the stuff "they" sell here in israel

They have some 5 minute and 30 minute high intensity orange and white glowsticks near me. They are like $1.30 a piece. I broke some outside, and they glowed bright. When i broke some inside (orange) they lit a 20 foot area REALLY well, almost as much as fire. They got peoples attention pretty well.
