Well if the bulb is filled with concrete, you'd really have to abuse it to break the glass.

The glass is broken and removed after the concrete hardens. That's step #6 in the directions.

I thought concrete expands as it dries. Guess not.

ETA: If that's not glass in the first pic, that's some shiny concrete.

If that were true, I'd think that concrete forms would blow out.

I've seen forms warped, but not 'blown out'. I've also seen concrete overflow the forms...I'm not trying to say anything...I'm just saying...

ETA: I'm not saying it expands much, but I wouldn't have thought a light bulb could've took it.
