I found this story hard to believe, except for the fact that I was there to witness it (and i instigated it in the first place). My buddy and I were playing video games in my green houose (seriously). The reason for this is, during the winter (just this last winter) that the green house is plant-free, and I set up a couch and a few chairs next to the full sized furnace we have in there. During the night time, you set the thermostat, pout up some christmas-style lights and you have yourself a party location. (i.e. not in the house, in the corner of the lawn by the gate so people can come and go, and to where the neghibors can't figure out what's going on). What happened was, after some select festivities, I decided it was a great idea to take a copper bird bath and set up candles in it and burn them. The whole idea was they could sit in a safe, stable, fireproof container that would reflect the light. wonderful. Eventually the wax built up in the bottom; a puddle 8 inches in diameter and 4 inches thick (a really big molten wax puddle, if you ask me). I got bored. bad idea. I began throwing in piceces of blank notebook paper into the candle flames, ooing and ahhing at the pretty light, which went great until I threw a whole blank note book in there. It was a pretty good flame for being in a wood and plastic green house, near a big flammable couch and in the vicinity of a natural gas line. But it only got better. I was calling it quits on the fire, and pansying out beacuse I choose not to destroy my parent's propery. I threw a quart of water on the flames, and thorugh some odd chemical reaction, shot up a colomn of flames 8 feet high (less than a foot from the crest of the green house roof). These flames were so hot that I instantly began sweating when within arm's reach. The flames began whipping over precariously close to the couch, so I did all I could. I kicked open the door (ripping the latch off of it), kicked the bird bath, nearly sending it into the couch. Then it got violent. I picked up my strat, and swung it like a golf club, full force into the lip of the birdbath, sending it soaring out of the door, and into the dry grass. I jumped a full 4 foot length, or so, out the door and onto the lawn and began beating the hell out of the flames and bird bath itself. I then wedged the head stock under the bath, after it went out, and flung it into the yard in angst. wonderful. All of this happened in the time span of 10 to 20 seconds, or so. and all the while my buddy was standing, staring at the procession, all gaped-mouthed and wide-eyed. after a period of speechlessness that lasted a full 30 seconds, he said "Dude... you wanna do it again?" When it was all said and done, there were wax splatter marks ALL over the inside of the green house and door, a burnt patch of grass and weeds on the gravel floor of the green house, two scalded couch cushions, a totalled copper bird bath (which was a $35 purchase), one destroyed guitar, and the worst odor I think my nose has ever laid witness to. Needless to say, I got a picture of the inside of the birdbath, all of the dents, the damage to my guitar and the wax and burn marks all over the wall. I ended up deleting half of them out of memory frustrations with my phone. (although I do still possess the bird bath itself). Did I mention this happened at 2 am on a sunday morning?
How I never melted the roof pannels of the green house, I'll never know. ------------- Most importantly - People suck. |

| We had a bonfire about 3-4 times the size of that (also used pallets) and still added more stuff as the night went on. We did it on the 4th of July and told the fire marshall that we were going to do it. Apparently a lot of people thought a house was on fire, so it took the fire department 45 minutes just to find the place only to turn around because everything was under control. |

Nice fire. I made a huge one at the start of the summer went over the house. Not much more to say other than it was still burning in the morning when I walked out there. ------------- Gamertag: Kataklysm999

Hmm.... My friends and I have a very, very small fire going in a pit. My idiot friend has thrown aresol cans in before, and dropped rocks on them to create a small fiery explosion. Idiot friend attepts to do this again, but with a full can. Needless to say, he created a good 10' high burst of fire that snigned his neck hair. Another time, the same idiot friend wants to make a molotov cocktail. We have a small abadoned house/shack in the woods that is roughly 10' by 10', has no roof or door, and made of cement. Filled with dry leaves. Idiot friend starts a small fire consisting of paint thinner on the wall, and throws a glass bottle filled with paint thinner on it, lighting the entire floor on fire. Including the can. We had to use a sled to beat the flames out -------------

A couple years back 3 kids from our town ahd a small fire and put a full can of spray paint in it, huddled around to see what would happen, and after it blew up everyone got burned in the face with molten paint and cut with shrapnel. They all had 3rd degree burns, and I think one fo them had to be airlifted to a hospital. Another time like before the start of this summer, there was a party going on in a neighboring town. They had an empty keg and a huge bonfire, so someone through the keg onto the fire. It blew up, and 2 kids died, because the metal blew up and cut their throats. |

I put a can of Aqua net hair spray in the fire and then hit it with a shovel.
I was way too drunk to feel the burns. |

Even if you did that, why not copy them into CS3 as well... |

I drunkenly stepped in the burning embers of a bonfire several days ago whilst camping on the river and didn't feel it at first. I sure as hell still feel it now.

I'm guessing from the small trench on the side, someone was using gasoline?  All my stories come from the local Scout camp when I was on staff. We've done the trench before with white gas and a TP wick. We've also wrapped a white gas-soaked rag on an arrow, attached it to a steel line anchored in the middle of the fire and shot it in with good effect. Our best fire was when we poured at least a gallon of white gas all over the logs and then threw a flaming stick into the middle. We had a mushroom-shaped pillar of fire go up at least 40 feet. At the same time there was a decent-sized shockwave and a flash of flames blanketing everything within 30 feet of the pit for less then a second. Probably the best fire we've ever done up there. ------------- Real Men play Tuba [IMG]http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1859/newsmall6xz.jpg"> PH33R TEH 1337 Dwarf! http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/log_off_user.asp" rel="nofollow - DONT CLICK ME!!1 |
