Can a water heater explode? - We set out to turn a water heater into a rocket!

Can a water heater explode and turn into a rocket? We wanted the find out for ourselves. With the inspiration from the popular TV series, Mythbusters, we simulate multiple failures on a water heater and plan to launch it as high as possible. We mounted two cameras on the water heater so we would get to see the pressure readings and watch the water heater launch into the sky. We go over just how we failed the unit and how these same failures can happen on the water heater in your home. If you're interested in plumbing, science experiments and explosions them this video is for you.
