There should be a 'Love' button for videos like these. Can't tell you how many random thoughts I've had like this, couldn't find an answer to, tried, and never videoed.
As much as I would like to use a Zippo in a zombie apocalypse situation, my best bet for a firestarter device would be a fire piston. The fire piston uses the heat from rapid compression to ignite a little piece of charred cloth. You need to make a little charred cloth at first, but after that, you can use the fire piston to light fires and make more charred cloth.

I've never heard of it. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the comment.
Great video Mr. Edwards!
imagine lighting a cigarette with a zippo running on ardbeg... damn that'd be a dream
Forth sir. We cant drink tha whisky from the ole zippo now😮. It was worth a try. Ive heard you can use many sorts of lamp oil and naptha.
Thanks for sharing
Don't run your lighter on whiskey. Thats alcohol abuse.
you can pull the flint out of any old disposable bic lighter you find and it will work just fine in a zippo
Yez sir
I know that the washing gasoline works fine and i also used actuall gasoline to start a car with and i felt fine after putting my cigarette on fire
Great video!!
Thank you your excellency!
I don't believe you gave the whiskey enough time to absorb or maybe the flint was drown when you filled it. 51% I would think would ignite.
@@TH-camr-mc2el I wondered the same thing myself so I tried it again a few days later,not on camera. Same result.
Agreed. It's totally feasible.
Hell yeah
I was just wondering this
I have a niggling feeling I didn't put enough in, so if you want to try it yourself let me know the results.
@@timothyedwards2161 I might, 51% is quite high so I would expect it to work .
For my own peace of mind I tried it again with a 49.4% abv. Still no. Still disappointed.
Why not try bleach next? Battery acid? Toilet cleaner? Coffee? 😂
