I can teach you how to build one (in a smaller scale of course). Not suitable for indoors though.

Fill a balloon with hydrogen gas, ignite it.

I wonder if I have any broken pingpong balls around.

I didn't prepare it. We have plenty of these at uni (in fact, this photo is from my university):

Did you just pour aceton on the candle right before?

Nope. I just soaked the polyestyrene with acetone and then ignited the sticky mixture.

Ok. That's what i asked to know. Thanks.

Chemistry is a lot of fun. Just like physics.

Chemistry is the coolest of all the science It owes all to Physics though

I just realized that I have to try to ignite a pingpong ball covered with acetone-soaked polystyrene hahahaha

Inside? I'd doubt that

Nah, just kidding. I don't burn things just for the sake of it: I only burn things which might be useful or interesting to know from a purely chemical point of view.

Regarging your supposed "hydrogen bomb", I have two negative points for you:
a) hydrogen gas isn't precisely easy to get.
b) that way is dirty and very little elegant.

I have the solution for both
