Greg Foot and Mike Sansom set themselves an ambitious task, to see if they could beat Santa's record of getting around the world in one night... Hmmm... Yeah we thought so too!

So for the ninth explosion of Christmas, Greg and Mike put rocket motors into 9 reindeers!

Newton's Third Law says that for every action there's an equal and opposite reaction. So the action in this video is the rocket motors shooting out in one direction, and the equal and opposite reaction should be the reindeer flying upwards... To find out if it worked or not you'll have to watch the video!

There are still eight more videos to go until Christmas, so make sure you hit SUBSCRIBE so they appear in your YouTube home feed when you log in.
