What is lighter than air, can be seen by unaided eyes, and if you put it in a barrel it will make the barrel lighter?

A hole
Never forget who you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.

But... that doesn't make sense! Seeing as you would have to make a hole in the barrel, you would first have to make it empty. Then, more then likely, if the barrel is made out of metal, then you would have basically use some method (welding?) which increases the molecular composition of the barrel, increasing the weight of the barrel, which is empty to begin with. Photons of the visible light spectrum obviously makes more sense. Obviously.

Snoink is very literal. I wanted it to be fire. Because I'm going to sound stupid and say it is lighter than air. People can see it no problem and it would burn down the barrel making it lighter :P

Fire needs a catalyst for it to work though, which makes it heavier than air automatically!

A man travels backwards in time and kills his father before his conception. But if he killed his father then he was never conceived/born/alive. And if he never existed then he could not kill his father. ANd if he could not kill his father then he would have existed to kill his father... A riddle I came up with writing The Time Traveling Mercenary.
