Some of the fires in those videos have a strange purplish or blue glow at their edges. Is that flame burning outside the visible spectrum and can it be seen with the naked eye? Example: https://youtu.be/Fym6X-JvEOs?t=1m8s https://youtu.be/Fym6X-JvEOs?t=1m8s Or just an artifact of the recording technology?
If it's burning outside the visible spectrum, and the same part isn't also emitting visible light too, then that's really scary - it would mean that every time you see a fire like that, it's actually considerably larger than it seems.
I am curious whether you could see hydrogen burning on a camera like these dashcams.
Edit: This is absolutely crazy. What is going on in this video? https://youtu.be/Fym6X-JvEOs?t=1m59s https://youtu.be/Fym6X-JvEOs?t=1m59s
- elijahparker 10y agoI would say it's just the auto white balance on the camera trying to deal with an unnaturally warm (color temp) scene by adding blue. Not sure what kind of street lights they have there, but they are also bluish which would imply the WB is significantly off
