The surprising hazards of gasoline vapors…

H
I once lit a lighter over an EMPTY bottle of liquor and it blasted a flame and burned my fingers.
V
I have done the same exact thing trying to do that cool flame trick. The last time I did it was with a 151 bottle. Looked like the space shuttle was launching with my hand acting as the launchpad.

Back in my 20s I was at a 4th of July party. The host lived on a rural lake. He had made himself some “bombs” with gunpowder in tennis balls with fuses. Tossed those in the lake. Fun booms and water spouts. At the end of the night there were still a LOT of bottle rockets left. So, the brainiacs handling the fireworks decided to lay them in a line facing the lake, pour black powder across the fuses so they would all go off at once, and light them with their BIC lighters. Most everyone’s lighter at least melted. While there were burns, fortunately no fingers were lost.

I pressed the butane button on a lighter without flicking the flint and filled a bottle with gas. I lit that thing and flames shot out like a jet’s exhaust. It burned the top layer of skin off my index finger in no time at all. I am honestly surprised that I managed to live long enough to be become an adult.
H
I still have a scar on my nose from when I put a firecracker in a glass bottle, set it down around the corner of my parents garage, nothing happened, so I peaked around the corner and it exploded. Glad the glass hit my nose and not my eye. Kids are stupid. Kids in packs are dangerously stupid.

You know you can think before you Act
W
I can’t think without a beer in my hand and you’re already holding mine.
A
😂🚬

#HOLY SHIT BOBBY DO NOT MOVE
S
> think What does that mean?
A
> let your mind go. let yourself be free.
H
There was a reason the bottle was empty.
M
But i want to live in the moment, every moment until i die
T
Take a bottle of rubbing alcohol, and light it up. It HAVE to be upright! If done right, it will go WHOOSHwowowowop. Blow in it, cap, shake, open, repeat. NEVER DO THAT WITH AN INCLINED BOTTLE. Or at all.

“This flammable liquid turned into a gas, but I’m sure the gas is fine”
H
I dont think there was any thinking about gas in this situation.
Z
I dont think there was any thinking ~~about gas~~ in this situation*
H
Oh Im sure they were thinking about gasoline. Just not in a very intelligent way.
E
The gas can left a trail and he left a different kind of trail
S
Inflammable means flammable? What a country!
R
The gas is what’s flammable anyway and not the liquid.
A
Glad someone is caring for gas
R
stupidity is the one that’s dangerous
S
True. Doubly true when mixed with explosives.
D
That canister must have gotten up to 88 mph
S
Great Scott!
P
And produced 1.21GW’s of energy
V
Jigga watts!
G
Not much of a WTF but gasoline was devised for ignorant people to show off and create videos for us. Case in point.
V
Gasoline was devised to remove the stupid from the gene pool
M
Then artificially add it back in with the lead smoke. 🙂
S
8 drops of gasoline vaporised and properly proportioned with oxygen is equal to a stick of dynamite. It’s no joke.
H
I once lit a fire with gasoline and got airborne and ended up in the ER with a right arm looking like a perfectly barbecued sausage. That was stupid…
C
That must be a gnaly scar.
H
Wanna get real creative, take an empty soda can. Turn upside down. Take a lighter and fill the can. Light it. It won’t explode, but creates an awesome jet.
W
Core memory unlocked.
D
I figured this out when I was like, 11 or 12? When I was 14 or so, I decided to take it to the next level. I got a 5 gallon water jug and a two pack of the long bic lighters. Emptied one of them completely into the 5 gallon jug, used the other to light it. WHOMP!
S
No, I don’t think I will.
D
I don’t understand. What are you filling the can with while it’s upside down and why is it upside down while filling it?
R
Butane is lighter than air
H
A lighter, fill with gas, creates a small jet. Upside down prevents the gas from escaping.
V
Got that AI.
S
Stevie Wonder could have seen that coming from a mile away. Gas fumes are nothing to mess with.
S
Bro went back to the future.
A
GREAT scott
S
Well, at least now he knows how rockets work
E
Pretty sure NOFX had something to say about this on Punk-o-Rama 3.
H
Gasoline is nuts. Don’t be close to it when you light it.

I enjoyed this way too much. Thanks.
