Question.

Been taking stock audit of my company these past couple of days. From top of containers to the basement saw every inch of my company. Found couple of interesting products there like, windproof matches & waterproof matches, which got me wondering, suppose there are matches which are both windproof & waterproof how do you extinguish such matches?

If the match is wind-proof, apparently, its not affected by any form of wind... which would also include oxygen. Now, in such a case, how do you light the match?

Sand is used to extinguish fire. Use sand. Hence where so ever you might be, make a dash to Juhu Beach and grab sand!

Another option is to carry a vacuum chamber with you. Push the match in it and it will extinguish due to lack of oxygen.

Lastly let it just burn till the wood dies out and it shall extinguish by itself.

Get us a few of those wind and water proof matches and we'll test them out.

Remember the thing we do with empty IB bottles. Would be fun to see a match keep on going no matter what. Would want to know what would happen to the IB bottle.
