A few drums of gasoline come in handy sometimes.

Dude set his whole body on fire and didn't even bother to video tape it? Break.com pays like $600 for stupid videos like that. That might have helped pay for his medical bills (although I'm guessing not much).

I read that as "whiteman". Which would have been inaccurate. He's a crispy golden brown man now.

My drunk buddy poured gasoline out of a gas can on his firepit last night, almost setting himself, his house, and his guests (including me) on fire last night......so I guess I should be getting a kick out of all these replies?

What could go wrong? Absolutely nothing as long as he only hurt himself. How's that personal responsibility working out for you? Hurts don't it? Bet you won't do that again.

It's amazing how people take gasoline for granted. Gasoline is wicked dangerous. You especially don't pour gasoline on things that are on fire, unless you want to be on fire too.

I hope the FAIL tag is not for Darwin ...

 
jbrooks544 2009-06-21 10:17:09 PM  
Use gasoline as a motor fuel only, PERIOD.

Learn it, remember it, live it.

Really kids, just use it in vehicles and use something else, like kerosene or diesel for fires or cleaning, etc.

A lot of idiots make the stupid assumption that gasoline is simply flammable. They don't consider that it's farking explosive. And then they all say the same thing: "It all happened so fast..."

Am I the only one who was fondly reminded of one of the greatest arcade games of all time, TOTAL CARNAGE??? One type of the multitudes of enemies was as described above, just a bunch of guys totally engulfed in flames, running around flailing their arms over their head....

Pyro's Golden Rule: Everything Burns

Don't believe me, look at the poor sap from this article. He burned just fine.

There's nothing dangerous with tossing petroleum on open flames if you do it right. Just remember that "everything" includes you and yours.
Safety first!

I use diesel to test if fuel injectors hold pressure in a rig I built... because testing with gasoline is insanely dangerous. Diesel is (moderately) safer.
