VIDEO: Many tins make light work!

What do you do when there is no electricity and you've run out of candles?

All you need is a tin of tuna in oil and toilet paper or kitchen roll and you can make light of any situation!

True story. With the above items you can make a lamp that will burn for around 3 hours.

And if you're worried about wasting food and never being able to eat the tuna, don't worry - the tuna remains edible.

So, perhaps there is more to the words 'Light tuna chunks in oil' on those tins!

Do you know of any other potentially life-changing tricks using ordinary household items?
