Wikipedia explains it this way – or you could just ask Jake or Preston or another physics student.

Hi Josie, September
My name is Raiyaan. I liked the video called Rubins tube. I liked the video because the way it was built. The way it the pieces were put together is cool because of the sound making the metal vibrate causing the fire to go higher. Your blog is amazing at describing our school. No wonder we have so many new people visiting our school. Visit our blog if you would like to.
Thanks
