TramampolineBeing a collector of stamps (presents from family not by choice), I had numerous magnifying glasses at my disposal. I realised early on that stamps were boring - but burning things was ace.
So finding a trail of ants I set about testing how long an ant could take the magnified power of the sun. Not very long apparently.
The fact that I did this on the trampoline did not go well. Queue my brother and I jumping on a hole ridden piece of rubber. Queue my brother and I splitting said rubber and hitting the dirt pretty damn hard. Queue 3 twisted ankles.
Conclusion: Burning ants is fun and we have strong bones.

Burning antsI think they smell a bit like roast potatoes when they're cooked in that fashion.
