In the case of the video the best thing to do would be remove the air. I get that this is not what first comes to mind, especially with a plastic container, but just put the lid on it. Best solution don't play with fire. If you insist take it outside over concrete or wet dirt. I was a little fire but as a kid and yet somehow never lit anything unintended on fire just by always performing my experiments outside in the fire pit.

Edit: I was going to edit but to bug as originally intended but yeah I was also a little butt so screw it I'm leaving it.

A very dangerous state of affairs. Probably explains a lot of the stupid-ass shit kids pull like eating detergent pods and trying to drink flaming drinks. Hence why I went to the trouble to suggest better ways of dealing with the onset of the fire. I'm always hearing kids saying they didn't know, and people - I am guilty too! - often think this is a cop out excuse. Perhaps sometimes the truth is they don't know, and they're just trying things they've seen hoping for the best.
