I know someone who wanted to light his fart. I'm not going into any details here, but it didn't have a happy ending.

 

Hmmm, never lit a fart myself. Lit my arm, my leg, and a few other palces *cough cough*

It doesnt hurt that much... less you light an open wouldn somehwere on your body.

For Example :-

I had cut my leg, dont ask how, not important. Anyways, i sprayed deoderant on it to see if it hurt... i did, a LOT! Then i decided to light the deoderant... dont EVER try this yourself less your pain threshold is higher than Everest...

 

LOL. Good one.

(Wow, this was my first one-liner ever on this board. Shame on me. Spank me Tal. )

 

Almost every 4th of July my best friend and I chase each other around with lit fountain style fireworks, followed by shooting bottle rockets at each other.

Other things we've done include:

• Drenching our hands in gasoline and lighting them on fire and seeing how long it takes for the fire to start getting too hot to handle
• Shooting "Blue Darts"
• Helping him remove all the hair off of his head be moving a blow torch quickly over his head until all the hair was burnt off
• Testing the effects of thermite while not being able to run away quickly enough
• And lastly, seeing how long we could hold a lit match

None of the above were very bright, but we got a few laughs from them...after the pain had gone of course...

 

What's wrong with you people????Are you insane????

 

I think a girl with long hair in my chemistry class once had her hair lit ablaze by a bunsen burner, but that's about it. Complete accident, and no, it was not funny.

 

You say that like it's a bad thing...

But seriously, I think it's just a case of not thinking. Plus, chicks love scars...I hope...

 

Been set alight once, by a school bully

which is not very friendly

About a week later I sent him to hospital

 

When I was a kid, I played with fire. But setting people on fire for a laugh, I think that's sick. And maybe something that causes regret for the rest of one's life.

What did you do, break his nose ?

 

well, a nosebleed, he was throwing sticks at me so I pushed him into the classroom wall

 

Me and my friends hae fire wars. We chase each other around with home-made flamethrowers. We just use lighters and hairspray. It's prety fun, but my firned got a 2nd degree bun playing it last week so we stopped...for now

 

And some people didn't believe Darwin.

 

Hah, that's a nice one Laches.

I've definitely never done anything similiar to what was mentioned by some of you guys, I've certainly gotten burned, but not intentionally.

 

Try setting fire to your socks during class... The teacher is guaranteed to freak out!

 

one time I was board in the car, so I started to figet. My hand found its way to the ash tray. I opened it and started messing with the lighter. Not thinking, I put it away, but plugged it in. I little later I figeted again, took it out, and pressed it on the web of skin between my forefinger and thumb. Smelled like burning flesh afterwords, and it turned all brown, really nasty

 

You made thermite? cool. I got a massive Keg of the stuff in my shed... I made loads of the stuff about 6 months ago... I did actually stick some on my foot, then light it... I didnt say it at the top because youd probably commit me... That one never healed either...

The one where i lit the open wound scarred badly, because it screwed up the tissue, and took over a month to properly close up. Not for the sane... or remotely sane...


For all you other idiots... nice one, and sadly the poll has gone down to 50% saying what sort of maniac are you... it WAS 60% saying its a great way to keep warm... bur anyway... thanks for taking an interest in my first thread...

@The_Anarkist: I seriously hope you're joking.

 

no im not... but my foot did heal sorta... and it didnt burn all the way through... just about a centimetre...
then i stuck my foot in the ice-cold-water...


Like i do when i light other parts of myself... ive done pretty much everything now so it doesnt really bring anything new... wanted to test thermite on a person though... effective, and mega ouchie.

 

I once set fire on both my socks, it was terrible. I had to run around the floor jumping and stomping
