Two candles used as a substitute for Wii sensor bar

This seems unbelievable at first, but it seems two candles can be used to control the Infrared’s movement via the Wiimote.

Light two candles and spaced them apart approximately seven inches (the same width as the sensor bar) and the naked flames emitted by the candles is bright enough for the Wiimote to detect movement and position!

Here’s a video proof from YouTube:
