Hope your reflexes are real quick, FF. They don't call them flash fires for nuttin'!  Being a bodyman, I bet ya seen a couple. I sure have. |

I worked with a guy who was cleaning his mower in a basement with gas. The hot water heater kicked on and the flash exploded the gas. the mower, every aerolsol can in his basement. He told me the entire basement floor had 3ft of flame. He got out the cellar door and put himself out by rolling in dirt. He survived but had to have multiple skin graphs to both legs. His house almost burned to the ground.

Years ago there was a guy at Modern Continental Co that used to prime his wood stove with ether/starting fluid. Stupid did it one day while I was putting an antenna on the roof of a pickup.. Friggin wood stove was on the other side of the truck and he blew me off the roof. I will never forget the flames coming straight at me. What a idiot.
