The air squib is not only used to create hits in actors by FX-technicians, but also a number of magicians wanting to snuff out candles as if by magic. Extinguishing candles may be used to demonstrate “magic powers”, but also in spooky seances to “prove spirits are present”. This way, the candle will blow out in an instant at the exact moment needed. We were once asked to rig hundreds of candles to blow out in the film “The Dream Home”.
\n\"\"
\nThe process was greatly simplified by using “channel candles” that has channels running the length of the candle.
