"Do not try this at home." This statement has been used in making many different, adventurous, and dangerous situations. One such activity that this aptly applies to is making rocket fuel. Unfortunately, a college student in Utah had to learn this “don’t try this at home” lesson the hard way when he tried to recreate an experiment that he saw on social media. <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2022/02/21/us/byu-rocket-fuel-fire-trnd/index.html" class="on">The student, now dubbed as "Rocket Man", caused a fire</a> which made the Brigham Young University (BYU) police officers and Provo firefighters respond immediately. Luckily, no one was injured. Some dorm residents, however, had to be displaced due to the flooding caused by damaged kitchen pipes. This is a friendly reminder to keep your experiments in the laboratory where they can be supervised by trained professionals. ​Image credit: BYU Police #Fire #Accident #RocketFuel #College
