Findings

Additional insights we found via NPR's Skunk Bear

  1. This NPR video makes clear that there are surprising similarities between how our bodies and fireworks function.

  2. Fireworks and our bodies are both packed with carbon atoms, and have controlled releases of energy that create heat, keeping the human body warm or fueling fireworks' heat, respectively.

  3. The human body even emits a tiny bit of light somewhat similar to fireworks—though it's not visible to the human eye.
