Exploding The Watermelon!!!

  Before starting I cut a hole in the top of the watermelon big enough to slide a 20oz soda bottle through, and then the watermelon big enough to hold the bottle even when the top part of the watermelon is placed back over the hole  kind of like carving a pumpkin except no holes are made other than the one at the top.
 I pour enough water into the watermelon so that when I place the 20oz soda bottle inside it is completely full  overflows a bit. I practice putting the lid of the melon back on in such a way that it keeps the bottle inside the bottle wants to float and pop out of the hole. I have found you need to use a plastic fork or a stick or something to keep the lid from popping off since the bottle pushes up on it quite hard. Putting the bottle in the melon and covering the hole has to happen quickly when it is done with liquid nitrogen in the bottle, so I practiced a few times.
I remove the soda bottle from the watermelon, add some more water to the melon for good measure, and put the top of the watermelon nearby so I can quickly cover the hole in the top of the melon after the next step. So after the steps all the ingredients inside the melon.
 But hear this you can do all of that but there is something easier than buying some stuff there is two ways of doing it that or this one ok here are the materials watermelon, air pump,needle,goggles,earmuffs,2 pumps or something to cover your ears might be loud ok the first step is that  you put the watermelon far away from you then you make a tiny hole so the needle can fit then you turn it on then you see it after a while you put on the goggles and earmuffs as you see the melon gets bigger then booooom!!!!!!!!!! you'll kinda get shocked after all the pieces then your project is complete that's the second way to do it.

  1. Theres a problem here you were writing about expanding Colors then you do another but about Exploding the Watermelon. When you are going to do different projects don't title both Expand Colors. Thank You for reading this.

  2. Why did you change the science experiment from expanding colors to exploding a watermelon. I liked both science project. The one I liked the most was exploding a watermelon because it has more action.
