The Force HAS awakened, and this man has proved it by building his own lightsaber.

Inventor Allen Pan created the impressive device after creating a fuel mixture comprised of methanol and acetone – before injecting it into a specially customised toy lightsaber.

The result is laser like beam that shoots out of the end of the weapon, and while it isn’t quite the sith-slaying contraption that we’re acquainted with, it’s still capable of fulfilling the will of all Star Wars fans by setting fire to a certain Mr Binks.

Burn Jar Jar, burn.

But if, like us, you’re not capable of creating such a weapon, you can go and see The Force Awakens as it dominates the global box office for the foreseeable future.

Earlier today, Disney announced that the film had broken the record for the biggest day in UK box office history.
