How can I make this easier?
I've already said: "there are two elements involved. Two; the rock and the iron/steel. And it's not the rock."

Then Tom called me a punk. And you keep saying it's the rock....

I've already posted the Youtube video with an exact time where the answer is stated, but I'll try again... (Think about this one, guys... Cavemen could handle the answer.)

O.K. In one hand you have a rock (either flint, noviculite, agate, or any other Chalcedony-type of stone. [quartz would work if it had a sharp enough edge.])
In your other hand you have either iron pyrite or a piece of iron/steel.
Using a sharp edge of the stone, and a fast motion to cause friction (heat,) you slice off "SOMETHING" that heats up and glows... the spark.
Now... if you only have two items, and one of them is the rock causing the slicing and the friction... what is in your other hand that is heating up and glowing?

{Extra hint - take two pieces of paper and write the words "Stone" on one and "Iron/Steel" on the other. Now, hold one in each hand. Remember, the correct answer is NOT "Stone."}

{Extra EXTRA hint - 2 minus 1 = ? }
