A fire eater is an entertainer, often a street artist or someone who is part of a sideshow. The performer places flaming objects into their mouth and extinguishes them, as well as practicing controlling and transferring the flame. Other than fire safety precautions and some practical advice regarding the laws of physics, there are few secrets to eating fire. There is no such thing as "cold flames," and there isn't any special substance in the performer's mouth other than saliva.

So, you want to learn how to be a fire eater? Well, there's a few tips and techniques you might want to observe before partaking in the dangerous, yet impressive performance magic of fire eating. In this free video series, a fire eater will teach you how to take into account a number of variables that may affect fire eating, including the wind factor, heat factor, and type of torch being used. Further depths will also be explored, including how saliva and breathing should be used in fire eating, and how to eat fire safely. With these tips, and much more, you'll be well on your way to becoming a fire eating performer!
