But what if when it rises it hits a furniture or a curtain or anything that would burn?
As the Flying Wish Paper takes vertical flight, it is almost finished burning and is almost immediately cool to the touch after that. Check out our video to see it in action. Nonetheless, we do recommend lighting your Flying Wish Paper away from curtains as an extra precaution.
Do I have to use the wish platform?
Vat19 and the manufacturer recommend using the included with platforms on a flat surface. This will give you the best wish paper launch as well as protect the surface beneath the wish platform.
seriously?
Seriously.
i like the mini kit's design more, is there a possible way to get the mini kit design on the large kit???
Sorry, the kits are only available in the sizes and designs seen here.
Would this work with any kind of paper (ones that aren't included in the kit)?
No. You must use the included sheets of "wish paper".
This is just a random question kinda putting two products together, but would the paper still work if you used the metal pen? I know we can use pens, but I want to know if the metal the pen writes with would affect the product at all?
Flying Wish Paper would not be affected by the Inkless Metal Pen. Great idea for a cross-promo!
Um, wouldn't it be best if it was done outside??? Like a shooting star is outside???
If you try to light the wish paper outside, there might be too much wind to keep the rolled up wish paper standing upright. You could light your wishes in a dark room so that the fire looks even more impressive.
How high does it go?
That partly depends on the atmosphere, but I'd guess about 5 feet or so.
Cant i just use newspaper? When it burns it flys up into the air. Simple as that i find an AD roll it burn it and my wish comes true! Cant that happen?
No, the wish paper is a special kind of paper that lights, takes flight, quickly extinguishes, and cools. You should not burn other types of paper - it won't have the same result and can be dangerous.
Can you use lighters instead of matches?
Sure. As long as the paper is ignited it doesn't matter what you use.
What happens if you don't use the platform?
While Flying Wish Paper can fly off of other surfaces, it doesn't always fly as well. The manufacturer and Vat19 recommend using the provided platforms as instructed. The platform should be used for the best launch and for protecting other surfaces. We wouldn't want marks to get on your furniture or scorch a table cloth!
Is this paper really gonna grant your wish? Ex: A guitar, fairies to give you as much wishes as you want?
We can't guarantee that all wishes will be granted, but we think there's a better chance when fire is involved. Hence the tradition of making a wish when you blow out birthday candles! As we learned in Aladdin, you can't wish for more wishes or unlimited wishes.
What is the wish paper made of?
The combination of materials used to make Flying Wish Paper is a trade secret and is patent pending. However, we do want to point out that nothing is added (no propellants, accelerants, or anything of any hazardous nature) to make the paper "fly".
can the wish paper be reused?
The wishing paper itself cannot be reused, because it burns up (hence making your wish come true). But the wishing platforms can be reused several times.
Can you use any other type of writing material?
You can use any sort of writing utensil, however it must be done on the paper included in the kit.
I wanted to split the mini kit with friend but there's not enough bases do you need a base or can u use card bord or something.
You can use a different base if you need to. The base is really there just to give the paper a level launching pad and to protect the surface of whatever is underneath.
Can I use normal paper to do it?
No, normal paper will not have the same incredibly ability to lift off like like the Flying Wish Paper.
how does it fly?
It just does! The manufacturer does not disclose the secret to why Flying Wish Paper flies.
The paper is pretty. Do I have to burn it?
Only if you want to see the paper fly.
Okay, I have four questions; question uno, are the pencils special or can we use any pencil? question dos, can we use pen on the paper? question tres, can we read the paper after it burns? question cuatro, do you like unicorns and rainbows? :3
You can write on the paper with anything you like, but reading it after being burnt would be difficult because the ashes are extremely fine and break apart almost immediately. Of course we love unicorns and rainbows.
can normal matches work of the paper?
Yep, you can use normal matches or a lighter.
Can i wish to be older (P.S I'm 9 and i wanna be 13 and i have a gmail and a twitter and a facebook account)
Yes, but it may take a few years for the wish to reach its full effect.
Can I Wish For Money?
I can't promise it will come true but it doesn't hurt to try!
Can you use any pencil to write with on the magic wish paper?
Yes, you may use any pencil or pen to write down your wish.
if you light it on like more paper and not the wish platform, will it set on fire? or is the platform not rally needed?
The platform is only there to protect whatever surface you're lighting the wish paper on.
what if i light it on fire in my house? will the ceiling catch on fire?0_o
Not unless your house is made of gasoline soaked tissue paper.
Can you guys ship this to Canada?
Yes!
Why do you have to catch it on fire? Why cant you use acid or gasoline?
The rising heat from the fire is what causes the Flying Wish Paper to take off. Using gasoline or acid would be extremely dangerous and possibly fatal.
is there any harmful smoke that comes off and can set off an alarm cuz i live in an apartment
No, the Flying Wish Paper generates very little smoke. Extensive testing has never resulted in a smoke alarm being set off.
does it work?
Of course! Watch our video to see how the Flying Wish Paper works.
Can the wishsheets be re-used?
No, the Flying Wish Paper cannot be reused.
Will your wish actually come true?
Of course! But remember, you not only have to be willing for the wish to come true, you have to be willing to allow the wish to come true.
sssssssssssooooooooooo........ how does it work or do you guys not even know not to be rude or anything
This is special paper that flies up into the air when lit on fire - that's really all we can say because the manufacturer does not disclose how they make this awesome paper.
Can you write on it with any pencil or do you have to use the one provided?
You can use any pencil. There isn't anything special about the included pencil other than it is small and fits nicely in the kit.
what type of paper is it that makes it fly?
The manufacturer does not disclose exactly what the Flying Wish Paper is made of. In texture, it feels similar to tissue paper or tracing paper.
Are lighters okay?
Lighters are fine too.
Two questions. 1. If you light it in a room with a low ceiling and it touches the ceiling when it's still on fire, will the ceiling get on fire? 2. Can't you just use a candle lighter because i don't like matches.
You can use a lighter if you like. As for the ceiling, there is absolutely no threat of it setting your house on fire.
What happens if you burn the platform instead?
The platform does not fly like the Wish Paper and should not be set on fire.
Is it better than throwing coins in the mall fountain to make wishes?
We'd say that it's exactly as effective as throwing coins into a well or fountain when it comes to the wish being granted. Unlike dropping a coin in a well, however, Flying Wish Paper is a lot more entertaining!
Did the wish will really come true???
And...did we must replace the wish platform every use?
It's a secret! No, you do not have to replace the platform each time.
Can you do this with regular tissue paper?
The included paper feels a bit like tissue paper, but it's actually quite different. Regular tissue paper will not work.
Is there any fumes or smoke that come off this?
No. Flying Wish Paper generates very little smoke and there are no dangerous fumes to speak of.
Let's say that you have friend over. Both friends would like to use the wish paper. Will the paper still work if you cut the paper in half?
We haven't tried it, but we don't think it will work. You could always write your wishes on the same paper.
After setting the flying wish paper on fire do we throw away the burned paper away or do we keep it?
You can throw away the burned paper. If you wanted to, you could keep it as a sentimental keepsake. It doesn't look very pretty after it is burned though!
if the wish paper lands on carpet or clothing, will the ash of the paper smudge and leave marks?
It can smudge, but the "husk" of the ash is very easy to pick up and dispose. You can catch the ash in your hand (or on the platform or a plate) as it floats back down.
Do you sell refill packs? I would like more wishes without having to get more platforms or pencils... If not when do you think refills will be available?
Sorry, we do not sell refill packs and we do not have plans to sell them in the immediate future.
when i light this will it smell like burning paper
Maybe for a split second, but nothing overwhelming.
how do we know that the wish will actually come true?
To quote late, great George Michael: "You gotta have faith."
Up to how many meters (i´m from europe) high is the paper gonna fly ?
About 1.5m. It's not a rocket or anything.
Is it safe?
Yes. You have nothing to worry about unless your house is made of tissue paper and gasoline.
Have any of you friends at vat19 done it and there wish came true?
We had much better luck with this than we did voting for Pedro.
What is the difference between the mini kit and the regular kit?
The size and amount of paper, mostly. Descriptions of each can be found in the "Features and Specs" section at the very top of the page.
Do our wishes come true when we light the paper?
Only if you truly believe!
Seriously, how DOES this work?
Also, how many times can one platform be used?
The platform can be used indefinitely. Basically, the ashes are so fine that the naturally rising heat carries them with it.
Can I wish for more wishes?
No, but you can try wishing for more Flying Wish Paper sets.
I Love <3 how the Scientist is a "BBQ" would anything else catch on fire as its in the air, such as if if flew under paper, would the paper catch on fire if it is close enough?
For fire, the Flying Wish Paper burns relatively cooler. You do not need to worry about it igniting anything else (unless you live in a tissue paper house).
How does it work?
Magic! Honestly, the manufacturer will not disclose to us how they make the paper or what exactly makes it lift off the way it does.
do you need to use a different base each time you make a wish
No, the wishing platforms can be reused multiple times.
If I use these outside are they environmentally friendly..meaning ok to let the ashes fly and leave them on the ground? What if a pet ate them?
Yes, the ashes are bio-degradable. Plus there is very little ash remaining, it virtually all dissipates upon lighting. Your pet eating this would be no different than if it ate an ash from any other piece of paper. Flying Wish Paper has no special/dangerous additive. But you probably don't want your pet to eat any ash, so it's best to avoid this.
does it have to be in a roll shape or can you make it, lets say, into an origami crane before you light it. And then, would it still float?
To work correctly, Flying Wish Paper needs to be in the shape of a tube.
how DOES it fly up in the air?
That's the magic of the Flying Wish Paper! It is special paper and the manufacturer doesn't disclose how they make it.
What is this "wish" paper made out of?
Essentially tissue paper, only a little thicker.
Will this work if you burn it on a surface other than the wish platform?
Yes, but the purpose of the platform is so that you don't damage whatever surface you're launching the paper from. It would be a good idea to use it regardless.
How EXACTLY Does this even works? Is it like a hot air bloon?
Hot air rises. As the paper is reduced to ash, it becomes light enough to be carried upwards by the rising hot air.
Will i only get red-flowers in mini kit and blue-dandilions in large kit?
That is correct.
Can the wishes come true?
Only if you truly believe in them.
Why do you need to crample the paper before rolling it to a cylinder?
It helps the paper maintain its tube-like shape by relaxing the paper.
Is this the same paper from tea bags?
Because i made one homemade with a single tea bag
and a single match and it worked exactly like it.
The physics are the same, but the material couldn't be more different.
If i'm not satisfied or it doesn't work can i sent them back?
Sorry, no can do. We can't guarantee wishes.
Does the wish come true?
Yes, but you might need to put a little effort in on your end too.
How many pieces of wish paper is in the large and small kit?
The large kit contains 50 sheets and the mini kit contains 15.
Why do we have to catch the paper when it's done?
You don't have to. We just wanted to demonstrate that it's cool to the touch.
i don`t get it,is it bad becouse you are burning your wish or is it good,and if it`s good tell me why,but it`s still awesome
We see burning the wish paper as a way of sending your wish out into the cosmos. It's a good thing!
Can you get red wish paper in a large kit? And vice versa?
No, the sets only come as you see them here.
Does the wish come true ? p.s. I love the channel
Only if it was truly meant to be.
Can you write multiple wishes on one piece of wish paper?
You can write whatever you like on your wish paper.
Will it set my smoke alarm off?
We doubt it but to be on the safe side you might want to avoid launching your Flying Wish Paper directly beneath your smoke alarm.
How high does it fly? P.S. You guys are awesome! I wached EVERY youtube video!
That partly depends on the atmosphere, but I'd guess about 5 feet or so.
Is it sometimes safe for kids?
Fire is never safe, so we recommend adult supervision if kids want to get in on the fun.
Does it smell good or dose it smell like smoke?
It smells like burning paper, which is exactly what it is.
If the product is being use outdoor, will it continue flying to the sky?
That would depend on whether or not there is an updraft. The paper will not fly forever into the sky.
What is the physics behind this phenomenon...please tell me I'm an IGCSE student so tell me the truth. Thank you
Heat rises.
If the Flying Wish Paper falls over while it's burning, will it still fly?
No, it needs to be right-side up to work properly. If it falls over, you can just let it burn up.
Can I write on it using the inkless metal pen?
It will write on the Flying Wish Paper but it is very difficult to see. You are better off using a regular pencil.
Well then, can you ship this product by train, truck, or boat to brazil?
Sorry, we are unable to ship the Flying Wish Paper Kits internationally by any method.
Will it set my house on fire?
Not unless your house is made of tissue paper or is stuffed with oily rags.
Since the kit does not come with matches anymore, does it matter what type of matchbox or matches you use? Also, can you use a lighter instead of matches? PS you guys are awesome.
Matches are a little more elegant but you can use anything that creates a flame.
I don't understand why you can't ship matches internationally. Why?
Simply put, it's against the law. Sorry!
What happens if I make the worng wish? A wish I did not mean to make? Will it come true?
It might, so be careful what you wish for!
How can it fly?
The magic of science!
I live in Canada. I just ordered two flying wish paper kits. I see that you were not permitted to ship this product internationally in the past. Are you now permitted to ship internationally (because matches have been removed?)
That is correct. In fact, we have a notice right under the video which reads: "Matches are no longer included in the Flying Wish Paper kits in order to allow for international and expedited shipping."
Can't I do this with regular paper?
Give it a shot. I think you'll find that regular paper doesn't work as well (if at all).
what will vat 19 do if our houses get on fire?!?
We'd extend our condolences. The Flying Wish Paper isn't that hot and extinguishes itself very quickly, so unless your house is made of tissue paper you probably won't have to worry about that.
1) What if you make a origami balloon (if you don't know what it is, please look it up.) with the flying wish paper and light it up, will it fly? It sorta like a hot air balloon!
2) Can I use wrapping paper as a replacement when I am all out?
Thanks
The paper needs to be folded exactly as shown. Wrapping paper will not work.
What kind of paper is flying wish paper? And where can I buy it?
The paper is exclusive to the kit, so there isn't anywhere else that it can be bought. Sorry!
1)If i light it half way and then save it and use it like three hours later and i tore off the burnt part, then can i reuse it??
Probably not. The paper burns pretty quickly, so even if it were possible I don't see any way of quickly extinguishing it without potentially ruining the paper.
Will a lighter work for this or dose t have to be matches?
A lighter would work. Fire is fire and it doesn't really matter where it comes from.
Should all ceiling fans be off or away from ceiling fans?
I want to do this but I don't want to become the disaster...
The paper doesn't really burn hot or long enough to actually damage your home. If you don't want the flight path of your Wish Paper to be interrupted then you should turn off your fans.
You do now that u can just use an empty teabag?
Indeed you can, but that's not the same thing. The ritual aspect of writing out your desire on a piece of paper and watching it lift off and be consumed by fire has a deep psychological impact. We're not selling a science experiment; we're selling an experience to be shared.
How high does it go?
If the conditions are right it can reach your ceiling!
Why are there multiple platforms?
So that multiple people can do it at the same time! It's also good to have replacements should they become damaged.
Is your wish going to be true when you write something on the paper?
Only if you wish really hard!
Is there replacements?
Sure, by buying another set. It's just the paper!
Can kids use this product, like 11 years old kids?
Not without close adult supervision.
what if I light it in a cardboard box? would the box catch on fire?
Yes, if you intentionally set the base on fire it will burn.
How did you guys think of this???
We wanted a perfect blend of science and mysticism, but with less Tom Cruise and more awesome.
Can you ship this to Singapore?
Yes!
Is this item popular? Because I really don't want to see it go out of stock :D
Flying Wish Paper is popular and we do our best to prevent items from going out of stock.
Is there any difference between Flying Wish Paper and regular tissue paper?
They're two completely different things that don't feel at all alike, so yes, there's quite a bit of difference.
How does it fly?
It's powered by the magic of thermodynamics.
How high does it fly?
In most cases it can fly right up to the ceiling!
Do I have to use the matchsticks?
No, you can use whatever fire starting implement of destruction you like.
Does it come in different colors?
The paper in the Mini Flying Wish Paper Kit is red and the paper in the Large Kit is blue. There are no other colors currently available.
how does this work? i'm not into the mysticism. i'm just curious about the scientific reasoning behind it.
Heat rises. Also magic!
What if when you burn the paper and it does not float? Is that bad?
If your definition of "bad" is anything like mine, then yes. As long as you roll the paper properly this shouldn't be an issue.
Three questions:
Can I just use REGULAR matches?
----and----
Can you just buy the paper?
----and----
The video for it doesn't work. Do you know why?
In the order they appeared: 1) Yes 2) No 3) Seems to be working fine on our end.
Would you recommend this as a birthday gift for a soon-to-be 8 year-old?
That would be a nice gift, and as always, use with parental supervision!
How can it... fly?
Heat rises and paper ashes are incredibly lightweight.
Can we use our own paper to write the wishes on? Oh and must we use the take-off paper thingy?
Only the paper included with the kit will fly. The platform is not necessary, but it will protect whatever surface you ignite the paper on.
This is going to sound really stupid, but I bought this (which I got today :)), but does it matter if you use a match or not? Like could you use a lighter?
You could use a lighter or matches.
Is this safe? Will it set on fire?
BTW do you ship to Macau and do you know where Macau is?
When used properly, the Flying Wish Paper Kit is safe, and the only part that will catch on fire is the wish paper. The flame goes out almost immediately and the remains of the paper instantly becomes cool to the touch. Yes, we ship to Macau.
Why do you need the platforms?
They aren't necessary for the paper to achieve liftoff. All the platforms do is protect whatever surface you're burning the Wish Paper on.
Is this for real do the wishes really come true? (im 13 please don't let me down)
Wishes can come true but it will require a little effort on your part as well.
Why must it be rolled?
It's only in that shape that the paper is able to achieve lift-off. My guess? Sorcery.
The wish paper is awesome, why don't you sell in bulk?
Actually, we do. You can check out our bulk purchasing section
here.
Are they scented? Keep on Vat19in'!
No, Flying Wish Paper is not scented.
how many wishes can u write in 1 paper?
As many as you can fit, but try not to be too greedy!
Can I write my wish on the wish paper and then fold it into a crane and light it? Will it still fly up?
To work correctly, Flying Wish Paper needs to be in the shape of a tube.
is it tissue paper?
No, Flying Wish Paper is not regular tissue paper. It looks and feels like it, but the paper is special.
If I write too hard will it tear? And if it tears will it fly?
The paper can tear, but the included pencil works well and you can also use the included platform as a smooth writing surface. If it tears, it may not fly (or may not fly as well). It definitely works better if the Flying Wish Paper is intact.
I'm thinking about buying this, but with a mail-in order form. Do I have to print out every page besides the one with the product I want?
No. You can print out just that one page or you can write down the specific item(s) you want on the first page.
Im kind of stupid but how much is S+H
You're not stupid. To get shipping quotes, simply click on the green "Calculate Shipping" link at the top of the Flying Wish Paper product page, right below the price.
Can this be done outside?
Sure!
What kind of paper is this?
Magic flying paper. It's pretty incredible.
How many times can you reuse the wishing platform?
As many times as you'd like. The fire isn't hot enough or on the platform long enough to cause any significant damage.
does it glide?
We'd say that it floats more like a balloon (filled with air, not helium) rather than glides like a paper airplane.
Can you ship the Flying Wish Paper to Philippines?
Yes. Matches are no longer included in the Flying Wish Paper kits in order to allow for international and expedited shipping.
I know it's much like tissue paper, but since it obviously cannot be, what sorcery is this? How does this contraption take wind!?
But it is sorcery! Honestly, the manufacturer will not disclose to us how they make the paper or what exactly makes it lift off the way it does.
how does it fly
The special paper takes flight when lit on fire. The manufacturer does not disclose exactly how this works though.
would it be possible to ship to Canada?
Sorry, the Flying Wish Paper Kits cannot be shipped internationally.
how much is shipping for the mini?
To determine shipping costs, please click on the green "Calculate Shipping" link at the top of the product page, near the price. You'll be able to choose which kit you want, type in your destination zip code, and retrieve shipping costs and delivery times.
so it wont ever fly at an angle and set something on fire? Also if i don't roll it in a tube what will happen?
No, nothing will catch on fire unless you live in a house that is either made of tissue paper or doused in gasoline. Not rolling the paper will just cause it to burn out on the launch pad.
What is your phone number?
It's right there at the top of the page! 1-800-476-1991
What Kind of paper is it?
The Flying Wish Paper is a special kind of paper that takes flight when lit. The manufacturer won't provide any details beyond that. It's like a magician's secret; it cannot be revealed!
one question. will this ship to arizona?
Yes, we can ship to Arizona.
Why does it fly? How did you make it fly?
The Flying Wish Paper is a special kind of paper that takes flight when lit. The manufacturer won't provide any details beyond that. It's like a magician's secret; it cannot be revealed!
