This is a test burn of potassium nitrate (KNO3) and Fructose (C6H12O6), both in powder form. No precise measurements were made, the ratio is roughly 60/40.
As evident in the footage, the amount of oxygen and exothermic reactions make this a ferocious burn.
Potassium nitrate is a strong oxidizer and reactant, and must be treated with respect!
