Expect explosive demonstrations, mind-blowing experiments, and lots of fun. If you love science and a little bit of danger, this is the event for you. Don't miss out on this unique chance to see chemistry like you've never seen before!"Hold My Matches and Watch This!"This is Ramsey’s signature presentation, often delivered at major industry events like the International Hazmat Response Teams Conference. It is designed to be a high-energy, interactive, and "graphic" demonstration of how chemicals behave in the real world.Core ConceptThe title plays on the stereotypical "famous last words" of someone about to do something dangerous. The presentation aims to replace that dangerous ignorance with a deep, visual understanding of Physical and Chemical Properties.Key Demonstrations & Learning PointsRather than just showing slides of data, Ramsey uses live (controlled) demonstrations to illustrate:Flash Point & Flammable Range: Showing exactly how little heat or concentration is needed to turn a liquid into a fireball.Vapor Density: Demonstrating how "heavy" vapors (like propane) can "flow" like water along the ground to find an ignition source, versus "light" gases that dissipate upward.Vapor Pressure & Boiling Point: Explaining why containers fail and how temperature changes the volatility of a spill.The "Boom" Factor: Visualizing the dynamic tendencies of flammable vapors when they encounter oxygen and an ignition source.The GoalThe presentation's ultimate objective is Risk-Based Response. Ramsey teaches responders that by understanding a chemical's "personality" (its properties), they can predict what it will do next, allowing them to make safer tactical decisions on whether to intervene or keep their distance.Professional BackgroundEastman Chemical Company: Principal Emergency Response Manager and Fire Chief.Emergency Response Training Group (ERTG): Principal owner and lead instructor.Expertise: Certified as a Hazardous Materials Specialist, Rail Car Specialist, and Fire Instructor II.Leadership: Long-time member and former chair of the Sullivan County Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC).Understanding vapor density and flash point is the difference between a controlled response and a catastrophic accident. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/south-jordan/hazmat-chemistry-hold-my-matches-and-watch-this-with-brian-ramsey/100001987361873863 - **Event Categories**: workshops, trips-adventures, business, conferences - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: South Jordan - **state**: UT - **country**: United States - **location**: South Jordan Fire Station #64 - **lat**: 40.54585180000001 - **long**: -112.0207779 - **full address**: South Jordan Fire Station #64, 5443 West Lake Avenue, South Jordan, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Hazmat Chemistry: "Hold My Matches and Watch This!!" with Brian Ramsey - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/0847fd864f8fefd2e57f2478795df87ce3b6e983c0d50dd36b6fe7cc9101af6a-rimg-w1000-h566-dcad8d63-gmir.jpg?v=1776321952 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Hazmat Chemistry: "Hold My Matches and Watch This!!" with Brian Ramsey being held? - **A:** Hazmat Chemistry: "Hold My Matches and Watch This!!" with Brian Ramsey takes place on Thu, 14 May, 2026 at 08:30 am to Thu, 14 May, 2026 at 05:00 pm at South Jordan Fire Station #64, 5443 West Lake Avenue, South Jordan, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Hazmat Chemistry: "Hold My Matches and Watch This!!" with Brian Ramsey? - **A:** Hazmat Chemistry: "Hold My Matches and Watch This!!" with Brian Ramsey is organized by Utah State Fire Marshal/HazMat Section. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
