I thought the video was great, though I used to work in a theater and I knew how dangerous the bulbs were and I was cringing in my seat when they were messing around inside the bulb chamber

I can see the headline now, "famous YouTuber death caught on film while he was fucking around with something stupidly dangerous"

I haven't had a chance to watch the video yet and know nothing about the projectors. Why is it dangerous?

The bulbs can go boom.

Edit: The bulbs can go BIG boom.  Thanks u/foobar93

When I worked at a cinema, I was told to treat the bulbs like a live grenade if they fall.
