Here is a challenge for you and REMEMBER this experiment is dangerous and do a lot more research before conducting this experiment.
Obtain a fully charged oxygen 'cylinder' then place some grease on a metal plate or dish atop a non-cumbustible surface and open the cylinder valve.
Don't forget to video film this testing of the hypothesis experiment and also check your health insurance before conducting the test. See what happens and good luck, after all, we are only talking about oxygen that is not a fuel nor something that burns.
