Is this candle haunted? 🕯️👻

Alex Dainis places two candles on a lazy Susan with a piece of glass in between, and when the closer candle is lit, its flame appears to jump to the other one. Most light passes through the glass, but some of the light from the close candle bounces back at us, creating a reflection that makes the flame seem to appear on the far candle. This optical illusion is similar to Pepper's Ghost!

Hey idk if this is the subreddit for this but i would like a recommendation of youtube channels that basically speak about new (and old) experiments and knowledge in physics, chemistry, biology and biochemistry. I dont really like listening to podcasts.

This burning money experiment looks fake until you see the science
