I see that his web page says:
Just a quick note concerning the
exploding pumpkin video many of you watched on the World
Wide Web and on television stations across the nation.
This experiment should ONLY be done by a science educator.
This experiment should NEVER be done at home! You will
notice from the video, I did not inform viewers of the
“secret” ingredient used to self-carve the pumpkin and
there were no kid science helpers assisting in the
segment. While my goal is to get America excited about
science, I want kids, young and old, to understand the
importance behind science safety. Go to

a complete list of science safety precautions that should
be taken with any experiment and a list of safe
experiments you can try at home. – Jason Lindsey
