everybody naturally guesses that its a fake.. because its just too hot and normally corn needs a while to pop ;D but even though i dont see the fake... please explain

#6 That is so wrong. http://popping-machines.com/images/air-popcorn-machine.jpg
Since the video (along with the audio) doesn't look fake (as it is of poor quality and not edited at first sight) i would say it's NOT corn. Or at least it's modified. Maybe pre-geated. Maybe the shells are broken so that it can pop faster, maybe the shells are completely removed.

#7 Depends on the type of popcorn - your example probably has oil already around it or something.. You can't just stick popcorn in a pot and stick it on a gas and expect it to pop. It needs to have oil, otherwise it'll just get burnt.
Go to your local cinema and ask them if they use oil in their popcorn kettle.

I actually OWN one of these machines and, trust me, all you need is electricity and corn. No oil, no salt, no pokemon poo.

I don't know about you guys, but have you ever heard of an air popper? I used to have one and all it uses is AIR!! no oil and the popcorn came out fine albiet bland!!
I don't think it's fake, all corn needs to pop is heat, which expands what little moisture is within the kernel, which then makes it POP.
p.s. I used to work in a movie theatre and those machines do indeed use oil, just so you know

So it is right to hate all the "it is far beyond my understanding - it must be fake" posters?^^

I don't think the heat from that flame would be enough to pop normal corn in an instant as he spat it through, so perhaps modified or pre-heated corn that just needed finishing off, or it may have had some oil etc. that would catch alight when passed through the flame, thus keeping heat applied to the corn for longer?

The flames don't move properly when he blows on them. That's fake #1. Popcorn has to be over 350 degrees internally for the pop to happen. No way passing though a flame for a split second will ever get it that hot. That's fake # 2. Fake # 3 is that if the popcorn is in the mouth the moving blood in the surrounding tissues would carry away the heat required to pop the corn. The tissues would cook long before the corn would pop.
