A buddy and I used to do this with a 5 gal. Culligan Water Cooler bottle. It made a cool rocket sound. I was more interested in shooting the jet of flame coming out of the top and we thought it would be neat to get a taller jet. We tried to make the nozzle smaller by putting a hole in the cap and snapping it back on the bottle. Needless to say the plastic bottle exploded in my hands, flew 20 feet in the air and came crashing down. The incident left us unharmed but the parents weren't to pleased when they heard the explosion from down the street. Just saying, be careful.
I've got some pretty poor shots from that experiment. I'll see if I can find them and post any semi-decent ones.
