Question:

How do you put out a flame that wont go out?

I had a candle lit in my room several months ago. I blew at the flame and it did nothing, if not make the flame bigger. I blew harder, and the flame got even bigger. I panicked and tried pouring a little water on it, and the flame went up about 1 foot. I really started panicking, so I grabbed oven mitts, put it in the bathtub, and poured a bucket of water over the candle. The flame went up to the ceiling and the glass around the candle exploded. Just wondering what I should have done to put the flame out, cause obviously what I did wasn‘t the safest idea, lol

Answer:

Be very gentle. I've never ridden a sport bike before, but I've seen how people turn them. You need to be very careful on your weight and just slightly lean to the direction you want to turn. Slightly turn your handlebars too. It's not greatly different from turning a bicycle, just with a bigger, more advanced bike. You might want to decelerate, especially if you aren't comfortable at turning that fast.
to turn a motorcycle at high speed on curves you have to be little bit experienced so my tip is that you have to bed your body a little to the curve and you can maintain your speed by accelerator.
Just turn, its not too complicated. It should feel natural. Don't make any jerky movments, hust lean into it and turn the handlebars a little bit.
Yeah. You have to smother them. That was the whole point of institutionalizing marriage. Otherwise your empire burns to the ground.
any fire can be extinguished if the oxygen source is removed. therefore, smothering it with a blanket or covering it with a glass or something that would block the ability of oxygen to get to the flame would put it out. if water didn't work the first time, why would you think water would work in teh bath tub. teh only time a flame would shoot up like that is a grease fire. grease is less dense than water and cannot be extinguished with water. i really doubt that the candle was made of grease but it is possible that the candle was tallow which is animal fat, which contains grease.
