It can’t get better than this! Students of George Mason University in Virginia, United States of America, have invented a way to douse fire with the use of sound waves! The two young men, engineering seniors Viet Tran and Seth Robertson, uploaded a video on YouTube a month ago to share the success of their experiment with enthusiasts. The video has now gone viral on Facebook as well.

Whoa! A duo of undergraduates at George Mason University in Virginia created a device that they say puts out fires with nothing but sound.

Tran and Robertson say on YouTube: “The fire extinguisher uses low-frequency sound waves to douse a blaze”. The duo now holds a preliminary patent application for their “potentially revolutionizing device”.

The two engineering undergrads use the bass to douse small fires, and think that their invention could go a long way in research for bigger fire extinguishers, including ones on drones. Watch the YouTube video of the experiment by George Mason University students to douse the blaze!
