      Yeah, I had the same reaction as you. I have no idea what that video is actually depicting. Maybe the bottle is hanging from an air/gas hose, that’s filling it up and then the pressure pops it? Got me.

      In other news, you can order a copy of my book from here: http://x-ingbooks.com/shop.html

      And thanks!
