Shot 1: I am leaning back, the fire is pretty. Some fire breathers who really are afraid of the fire will hold that torch out away from their face quite a bit. I am holding a torch an inch or so off my lips.
Shot2: Ignition. There's a lot of gas coming of of my mouth.
Shot 3: Fireball! This is when it is reaching the comet stage. At this fraction of a second the fireball looks like the iconographic comet. But the fire is gathering. Getting ready to reach out and grab the fuel that is racing through and ahead of it.
Shot 4: Its a respectable fireball and yet my fuel is still reaching past it.
Shot 5: The fire found the fuel and is a full on mushroom.
Shot 6: I stand on my toes in case that makes the fireball an inch or two taller.
Shot 7: There's the orange color at the top that signifies the death of a fireball.
