I bought a Japanese sword, we would cover it with lighter fluid and set it ablaze. Lights would be turned off and as it arced through the air globules of flames would be sprayed everywhere. Someone would often spray deodorant so the sword became a flamethrower. Amazing no serious incidents occurred though we did have trouble explaining the circular burn in the Lino floor.

At out school (and probably most schools, to be fair), every year group discovered the fun things that you could do with fire, water, and knives.
The only differences being in which order they were discovered.
Bearing in mind this was a boarding school, so the crap we got up to was pretty much 24/7, it's a miracle that the fires were only ever small scale, there was only one major (indoor*) flood, and only one person got stabbed.
But then, our science lessons included throwing fist sized blocks of sodium, calcium & potassium into the outdoor pool.
