im pretty sure the 2L bottle is shot off. The red thing looks like ignition. Very cool though, I've been wanting to make something just like that. Must be loads of fun to shoot!

When I push the triger the fuel in the small chamber cobusts and the flame and presure ignites the fuel in the 2l bottle.It is like a noisy roman candle.
