[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 1835750, member: 2844"]Unfortunately that doesn't make it much safer. I have seen burning celluloid, it spreads within seconds. The first time I saw it was when we were watching a real (reel ;)) black and white film of the Russian Revolution in class. Probably the staged 'Storming of the Winter Palace'. We suddenly saw an explosion in full colour on the screen, very realistic.:D And it was realistic, the heat from the old projector was burning a hole in the celluloid, and the projector caught fire. Within a minute the class was evacuated and the fire extinguisher finished the Russian Revolution.
