Los Alamos, NV - Have you ever wondered in quiet dread if that money might really burn a hole in your pocket? Now we know. Scientists have made the startling discovery that money can indeed burn holes in your pockets–and possibly even more.  As the video below shows, when a strong flame is held steadily against a dollar bill, it will indeed catch fire. If this experiment had taken place inside a real pants pocket, there’s no telling how many holes the bill might have burned. Although the experiment was only conducted on $100 bills, scientists predict that they would’ve gotten the same results had they used $20, $10, or even $1 dominations. The head of the research project reported that he chose to use $100 bills for the taxpayer-funded study because “it was much more badass.”
