Not surprised at the injuries. You could see bits of skin flapping as he was running away. Why is he peeling it all off though? eeew.

I think it was to get to bleeding tissue. Removing all the dead and burnt shit to avoid infection.

It's a pink fire which suggests lithium or potassium, but every household compound high in either puts out fires, rather than explodes.

I didnt say it was. I said it has a similar fucking effect.
Woah, salt has a yellow flame my dude.

Stupidity. He threw a whole lot of stupidity on the fire. And a dash of natural selection.
FierceAndAdorable
He threw a 'home-made pyrotechnic mix' into a roaring barbecue. Steel plate of BBQ explosion had no where else to go but back out st him
JGBowles
It looks like a bucket of charcoal and that’s the backdraft from powder igniting. He won’t be doing that again.
No it was ‘pyrotechnic chemicals’.

Not what but why? Why on earth would someone be so fucking stupid?
noptic
Have seen multiple instances of people trying to breath fire. Against the wind... Thanks god no one was hurt. Just lost some facial hair.
Well... Because this is a peculiar effect that may not seem apparent to quite a lot of people.

ignorance is not stupidity. not knowing something is fine. doing it after you know it is stupid.

It was a “hold my beer” moment, I’m sure...
dEzero
Close! He actually said "Watch! This'll be fun."
he allegedly said "watch, this'll be fun", before burning most of the skin off his left arm.
I think its more like: Hey Frank... Take this bag and throw it on the fire.
InboxMeGreatDanes
Hey not everyone can win the genetic lottery

News reports at the time said he threw "homemade pyrotechnics" into the fire to impress friends & was horribly injured.
Doesnt look like home made pyrotechnics at all. Just coal dust or even household flour would give that exact effect.
That was the official news report, I recall claims that he ground up fire starter logs. The color doesn't look like coal dust though
Looks pretty much exactly like what a bucket of coal dust would do.

Water on a Grease fire look it up and look at what happens when fire fighters put out fires in rooms it can make explosive steam
That’s... that’s not what this video is.
lilcapn
Bag was full of charcoal dust. Tossing on like that allowed for aeration and explosion. Kinda like handful of flour and tossed on open fire
PixelPolice
Isn’t it called a dust explosion or something of the sort
poopoo911
I thought it was water he threw on it? Causing the dust around it to fly up and ignite?
HeyOhBotchedToe
That's how they make electricity for a large chunk of mid-Michigan. Well, coal dust, but close enough for funk.
Ahhh science!

Sodium metal. Or drop it in a swimming pool you are trying to drain.

Well, it doesn't combust, but pressure can build up due to water inside. I'd just wear eye protection, if even that.
notkvothethebloodless
I always find it hilarious how dangerous and explosive flour really is. Yet people only worry about the fucking gluten
I mean, I don't think people eat clouds of it, with or without gluten. More important is that it's a raw food and needs to be cooked.
BluePaladin42
I was always told to throw flour on a range fire. I can never understand how the hell that bit of "wisdom" caught on. It blows up good.
Rodvitner
Flour &/or corn starch is the 2nd most used way to breathe fire just after paraffin/lamp oil. Its not very flammable when in a pile tho.
KyrainMcLeod
Still dangerous. In 1979 a mill in Germany exploded in what was called the biggest explosion since WW2. Apparently left over flour got /1
wet during cleaning. The resulting biological processes produced enough heat to ignite the fine dust and boom, no more "Rolandmühle". /2

Buddy of mine is a Fire Fighter in the U.S. She told me that they actually classify that stuff as hazardous materials. Makes sense now...

yea flour explosions are a thing and a major safety issue in the factories. can be a hazard in truck accidents as well.

Blue5679
Anything that can ignite is dangerous
RogueFirefighter
yep, pretty much most powders
LeftFielder
Yup, worked at a corrugated plant. Had to watch for both corrugated dust and starch.
+1 for username and occupation. Thanks for all you do mate. You keep people alive and communities together. Stay safe out there.
Essentially when things are in dust-form, the surface area is HUUUGE which allows for explosive spontaneous combustion when ignited.
toxcrusadr
It's not really spontaneous if there's an ignition source. Signed, a Pedantic Nitpicker
Spontaneous as in... It all ignites at once. You are thinking about auto-ignition. Which is when something self-ignites on its own. REKT !
drizztx
Spontaneous (adjective): developing or occurring without apparent external influence, force, cause, or treatment. /1
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/spontaneous DICTIONARIED!
Spontaneous reactions can require activation energy, depending upon definition, but "spontaneous combustion" usually means no ignition.
It would otherwise be very redundant, as AFAIK all combustion is spontaneous by the thermodynamics definition of increasing entropy.
It looked more like a mild explosion to me. Thats how I'd describe it.
