Very cool. Frustrating camera angles.

They might have been trying to stay out of the artist's way.

It's because it was recorded vertical for short form content. I saw the short first and this video appears to be edited and some of the camera angles are wider than here

How do you keep it from sticking? Some kind of carbon? soot? my mind wonders....lol

Traditionally it would be soot from a candle or parrafin oil lamp.

Cases of poisoning from tin metal, its oxides, and its salts are almost unknown.[1] You may mistake pure tin for pewter, which is an alloy of tin and lead. And even that is not THAT toxic. Note that you need over 2 500 oC to vaporize tin, plus it has very high heat of vaporation while for most applications it is barely molten. I am studying chemistry so I can assure you this is one of the most bening metals. Also don't confuse elemental metal for metal salts or organometallic compounds which is completely different thing. Tin also barely reacts with acids and is less reactive that chromium and iron! [1] Graf, G. G. (2000) "Tin, Tin Alloys, and Tin Compounds" in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry.

@@LiborTinkaThank you. ❤️ I do Tinsmithing as a Historical Interpreter and everything you just stated is right on the money. Tin isn't toxic. Pure and simple.

@wendyg8536 What on earth are you talking about? Tin isnt toxic. Tin got replaced with aluminum in a lot of household uses because alumimum is cheaper and more abundant (from bauxite, not native), not because theres anything wrong with tin.
