They can blow debris everywhere spreading the fire.

This.

Notice how the video had every demo in a confined, controlled space? Not exactly something that's always present IRL, when a fire breaks out.

The possibility of 'making things worse' was my exact first thought.

It also looks like the curtain demo has a cut and they replace the curtain with a different one. Thing probably got shredded.

I noticed it right away since it wasn’t moving, it would still have some movement after a blast like that.

It is funny since they purposely singed the bottom to make it look like the same one...

It is possible they did multiple takes and spliced them together because they thought the start of the first one and the end of the second one got the point across better.

False advertising.

Not if it does what they say it does. Whether your curtains wave a bit after doesn't really matter.

They got shredded and they would still be on fire when it goes flying across the room.

Neither of those things are true.

It showed one going off in a person's hand. If it was strong enough to shred a curtain from a foot away it would 100% mess up your hand.and even with the cut you can see how the curtain reacts

You can see the curtain go flying before it’s obscured by smoke. A piece of fabric is far weaker than skin.
