haha, i do find fire fascinating, but i think that's human nature. it's the impulsive people who cant stop themselves that are pyros!
Well, I think we instinctively like to see things burning, perhaps because it might be related to our genetic memory. Our ancestors felt safe when they were around the fire, during the evenings, to protect themselves against the animals and the cold weather.
Also the sound is nice :)
Indeed, but there's something about watching things burn in reverse that's just fascinating, watching a destructive force build something from a simple manipulation of footage.
...I also enjoy watching things be microwaved. I used to follow a youtube channel religiously of random things being put in there.
