Dangerous Marshmallows?!

The video compares the energy release of TNT and marshmallows, explaining why marshmallows don't explode despite having more potential energy. It discusses the role of chemical reactions in energy release, highlighting the difference in reaction rates between TNT and marshmallows. The video also explores how sugar can release energy rapidly under certain conditions, leading to destructive outcomes, and explains why rapid energy release is more destructive than slow release.
