Watermelon - DIY Fireworks!

It's been all over the news - "Watermelon is Nature's Viagra." Watermelon has a host of phyto-nutrients including lycopene, betacarotene and citrulline. The latter is found to "relax" blood vessels like Viagra does.

Citrulline is converted to arginine, "an amino acid that works wonders on the heart and circulation system and maintains a good immune system."

Not being the owner of the particular equipment -- I ask you, do you know anyone who has noticed this effect? I remember my grandparents eating LOTS more watermelon than anyone else I ever knew... is it possible they knew?
