I remember my parents showing me this when I was just a little kid. Still great after all these years. :laugh:

Haven't seen this one, but Nikon has made a flash one that I think appeared on this board before.

That whole video has one clear error.  Only the length of the sides is being increased by an order of magnitude.  Since the whole visual spectacle is about the area formed by that side, the actual change in area by adding one zero to the length of a side increases by the square of the addition.
eg: 
1m yeilds 1m^2
10m yeilds 100m^2
100m yeilds 10000m^2
1000m yeilds 1 000 000m^2
10000m yeilds 100 000 000m^2

It aught to be titled the effect of adding TWO zeros, thanks to the multiplication of powers rule.  :nerd:

Still cool, though; thanks for posting it
