Start a Fire with Water and Plastic Wrap

Starting a fire is an essential survival skill. If you have access to water and a bit of plastic wrap (or perhaps a clear plastic bag), with a little patience you can create a spark.

This works just like using a magnifying glass (or a clear jar) to start a fire by focusing a beam of light onto some burnable object. As the video above shows, it's a bit tricky to get the light focused through the bubble of water, but it does work.
