Gasoline is nothing to be trifled with, it's a LOT more volatile than most people realize. But impatience combined with laziness and ignorance, the unholy trinity of ER doctors everywhere.
i saw the RED gas can and a fire pit, combing these is never a good idea. stupid fat fucker is lucky he did not end up in a burn unit for a few months suffering multiple skin graphs. Darwin at work here.
Only needed to see the gas can in the thumbnail to know this would be good.
You can light fires with gasoline, but only under tightly followed rules. use only a table spoon of gasoline and put it in a separate container. The gas can must be 100+ ft away, then you can low crawl to the burn pit and light it.
I have used gas to start fires in brush piles. But the gas is always applied first. The container is sealed and placed a distance from the pile and the pile is ignited usually from a safe distance. Never, never, never use gas when there is any chance of uncontrolled ignition. And be careful around culverts. Some flood waters had piled up debris blocking a drainage culvert. I started it burning and a fireball shot out the other end of the culvert. Luckily there was nothing on the other end to catch fire.
The Navy Safety Center would put out a selected list of accidents called; "The Friday Funnies". They regularly would run stories under the descriptor: FOON! The stories would typically start out, Petty Officer Third Class attempting to restart a barbecue grill using a can of gasoline ...
That's a case of I Are Smart.

ReplyDeleteProperly aerosolized, one gallon of gasoline has the explosive power of fourteen sticks of dynamite.
DeleteOr so I’ve heard.
You always use diesel to start fires, you fat bastard, not gas.
