An Estes Model Rocket Engine Igniting Underwater in Super Slow Motion

Chicago engineer Matt Mikka of Warped Perception filmed an Estes model rocket engine igniting underwater in super slow motion with a Phantom Flex4K high-speed digital camera.

This time I take a estes Model Rocket Engine and Ignite it underwater to see just what happens, will it burn? will it blow? All while filming it in 4k super slow motion, I found a few things very interesting and educational about this video including the fact that the tank exploded. Also I noticed the nozzle pattern made a sort of vortex in the water which was really cool.

There are many Skeptics out there who think they're rocket engines cannot burn underwater, in a way we are busting a myth, but this was a viewer request. The result of this burning underwater was very fascinating, surprising and interesting.
