Where fire is a light source, the experiment also shows the differences between the flame compared to a lighter with an ordinary flame. The results depicted the lighter with no shadow and the black flame with a shadow. Like you said this does make an interesting question. I would also add that there are many theroys that darkness is faster then the speed of light. I’m sure I have a well appreciate video to correspond to that as well.
Oct 4, 2018 at 21:12 comment added This random guy When you think of light, white is a mixture of all the colors, but paint and pigment black is a mixture of all the colors. Black to get in light is either the absence of light, or a white shade of black when compared to a white background. The parlor trick is maybe the only way to achieve the black flame.
Oct 4, 2018 at 9:57 comment added Nicolau Saker Neto This is an exceptionally interesting video, thanks very much for sharing it. I do feel, however, that a more proper description for that flame is "anti-yellow", or to be extremely precise, "anti-sodium D line", rather than black. It is not my intention to demote your contribution, nor to be needlessly nitpicky. I merely wish to state that there is a subtle distinction, which provides interesting food for thought and a nice stepping stone into further topics, such as atomic absorption spectroscopy.
