What is fire?

I recently discovered minutephysics, a YouTube channel with a lot of short, interesting perspectives on different physics concepts.

Below is my favorite, called What is fire? There’s even a few tidbits in there that will help artists depict fire more realistically.

In Physics for Animators, you can learn more about how to depict fire in Chapter 8, Fire and Explosions.
