11 Science Experiment Fails That'll Blow Up In Your Face

Baking soda, check. Vinegar, check. Third degree burns on your face after trying out your science experiment for class, no thanks. We all have had to make a science experiment for one of our classes, or our kid's class. Usually these experiments go off without a hitch, but sometimes there is the poor soul whose experiment becomes downright dangerous.

So get your bandages and fire extinguishers ready for this insane list of 11 of the most painful science experiment disasters ever.  

1. Sometimes disaster strikes before you even get to the explosion.

2. This guy needs to stick to Call of Duty and stop making his own weapons.

3. Of course this is how you should test the strength of your Firestone tires.

4. This guy manages to get air somehow with this balloon experiment.

5. Hey, at least he made it from the beach to the ocean with his rocket.

6. Something tells me this professor chose the student he liked the least for this demonstration. 

7. Stayed tuned for the hot professor bod at the end.

8. Can you believe the mushroom cloud produced by this guy on The Tonight Show?

9. This teacher should be given a merit badge for taking one for the team.

10. The infamous elephant toothpaste experiment always leads to a safe but awesome explosion.

11. Someone should recommend a codpiece for this clumsy professor.

So when you completely screw up your class experiment, just realize that somehow, Neil Degrasse Tyson is watching... and laughing.
