    BBQ + Petrol = .......

    BBQ horror as dad engulfed by fireball - Local - Lancashire Evening Post

    A dad-of-three has been left with horrific burns after he poured petrol on to a lit barbecue.

    John Woof, 32, doused the barbecue in petrol from his mower to liven it up but was engulfed by an ‘eight-foot fireball’.

    Mr Woof, who works as an engineer

    Two things to note. One, hes obviously not a good engineer and Two, Woof, WOOF, is that the sound he made when he lit up

      What sort of engineer?

            Obviously stupid. I thought everyone knew that you should fill a balloon up with the petrol and lob it in from a distance.

              Not eligable, even if he'd managed to kill himself. Dad-of-three.

              You have to remove yourself from the gene pool before procreating.

              It still makes me wonder how someone that stupid managed to find a mate and breed in the first place.

                I would have thought the food would be tainted if you used petrol!

                  He can't have a Darwin... (the clues in the father of three bit )

                  Last year I needed to clear a six foot pile of weeds and dead plants. (and a three month old dead christmas tree ) so like this poor sod I wandered off down the garage and bought a liter of petrol and doused the pile of garden waste, and left it to soak in over a warm sunny day. In the evening I lit the home made incendiary bomb and almost took my windows out with the sudden blast. Luckily I had the sense to light a block of wood and lob it at the pile of crap from 10 foot away, or I would have been knocked on my back from the blast wave

                  We have some pictures somewhere. The flames where up past next doors roof.

                  Guy from next door came over and asked if we wanted to call the fire brigade

                    I was wandering into the house chuckling to myself on Friday night when the neighbour (bianchiman) asked why I was laughing manically. I showed him my singed arm and pointed at the chiminea. If you pour lighter fluid down the chimney bit, the flames shoot up the chimney in a sort of flamey mushroom cloud this lighting your sleeve and taking all the hair off your arms and hands.
                    Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.
