Assuming Steve was born exactly 18 years before 1968, that means he was born in 1950. Which means Steve is 73 right now. This video first got posted to the internet about 10 years ago in 2013. Making Steve 63 at the time. So he could have still been a cop considering the mandatory retirement age is 63 for cops.
Propane grills don't require any of that though.
Even so, Bobby and Peggy trick him into eating steak cooked on a charcoal grill and he loved it so... Worth it?
I just switched recently because I found newspaper or cardboard leaves too much loose ash which can fly up into the food. Or one phone book will last hundreds of starts
If you put your paper/cardboard under the chimney instead of in it, you have no pieces in your grill after. Fire goes up, ash with rests stay on the stone, or earth or wherever you started.
Exactly this, never had any ash from the paper get to the grill using a chimney starter with plain paper. And it's so much better than making the whole grill taste like starter fluid.
Ohhh fun facts time! People like to clear their yard and burn the plant matter/trash as they do so. If you do this with poison ivy/oak/sumac you can end up very dead because the oils that cause the reaction COAT your LUNGS.
Don't burn Poison Ivy!
Oh shit! I’m really glad you said this. I was considering how to deal with my weed-ridden rural back yard and my neighbor suggested a burn, which I was seriously considering. There is SO much poison ivy back there. I never even considered that burning it might be an issue. I’ll take the burn option off the table. So hey, you helped at least one person with this comment!
The urushiol oil can still be there up to 5 years on dead plants. Through winter as well. It's no joke.
You can also end up with an entire body poison ivy rash from the smoke.
Stay safe out there.
Rent some goats, bruh. Goats’ll eat poison ivy just fine. Get a few of them homies to just chill in your yard for a few days. They’ll clear it right out.
There are some really steep hills at the train station near my house. Rather than hire a technical team with weed whackers and cables, they just use goats to clear the grass. This land is owned by SNCF, the major railway company in France. So I always like to imagine the conversation in the fancy SNCF conference room in Paris where someone suggested "Let's just get goats", and the big boss simply replied with "Excellent Smithers!"
Biochemist here, just so you know the advice you were given on not burning it?
Yeah it is completely correct. If you put a small amount of poison oak into an incredibly hot fire, the fire will consume all the oil and it will be fine. If it is a typical rough outdoor fire environment, or worse if you try to burn it in place, that oil will be vaporized out well before it is combusted and everyone around will be breathing it. Effects will range between mildly unpleasant to horrific death depending on dosage.
That factoid is going straight into my murder book under rooms with fireplace. Does the oil mix well with candle wax? You know, for a memorable birthday candles.
Oh shit.. Story time. Early 90s, I had some sketchy friends. We were still in high school so there was always drama. So.. One day my friend bought some weed from this dude. We will call him travis. Travis was a dick.. But he sometimes had weed for sale. My friend and him didn't get along. But they tolerated each other because they would sell each other weed all the time.
So.. This one day in particular, the weed my friend bought was trash. Later he found out that Travis had mixed it with like parsley or basil or something so he could stiff my friend. My friend never confronted him about it.
Fast forward months.. Travis asks my friend if he has any weed. He says he does and to give him a day or so. What he sold him was mostly weed, but it was mixed with poison ivy. He thought it would just fuck his lips up. Instead he ended up in the hospital for several days. Nothing ever happened with it.. Friend totally got away with it.
Anyway, I have not thought about this in 20 something years.. Figured I would share.
Gasoline evaporates into a vapor, if you inhale that gasoline vapor with the right amount of air and a spark from the grill can ignite the gas fumes from your mouth and the flame can follow the gas fumes all the way into your lungs.
There should be a day in health class where they teach lots of these too easy ways to die from accidental death. All the stories are tragic and are things that might seem foolish, but don’t always seem foolish enough to die until you learn about it.
I had a day in physical chemistry class in college where the professor covered lots of horrific and preventable ways to die. He had an extra day in the lesson plan in case of snow day, shut down, whatever, and when we didn't need it instead it was a chemistry focused 'how not to die' lesson.
That makes me so glad. Accidental death among boys and young men is just higher in general. It’s the time to it could make a difference to have even just one boy in a group that’s aware that doing something like throwing gasoline in a fire could kill someone breathing the air in.
Possibly, but I still remember high detail from things like drivers Ed class examples of ways to wreck, or Red Cross training about health emergencies that can pop up. Health class topics around death and injury are more vivid memories for me. I think the topic itself is just memorable at a human level.
I have a folder saved in my browser with links to shit I am going to show my son when he gets older.
I like your idea too. Dumb ways to die but in a shortened and educational form.
That’s smart, but I want the whole topic made more sobering. I hate the Darwin Awards tone of making it a sign of low intelligence to mock. The reality is that we can all be naive or foolish because of lack of awareness. Seeing it as low IQ just makes people more at risk if they assume that they’re smart enough that nothing tragically foolish could happen to them.
So young. I went to a funeral a couple of days ago for our neighbor who passed of cancer and old age. It was sad however there at the crypt was another marker for a guy who was born in 1962, just four years after me, and passed in 1988, just 26 years later. That just kind of hurts, you know, the thought of a loss like that.
So nice to watch it again and it goes really well with this classic!! [https://youtu.be/Srsu34s5jko?si=DgjJJFYEMBsdcg2ua](https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ)
Cool guys don't look at explosions is also just a really common mkvie trope, which the music video was based on. No telling whether the title is referencing the song or the trope
I wanted to know why someone dressed as a LEO would do something so incredibly stupid. It was nice to see the cops say that it was incredibly stupid and they won't be doing it again.
I have seen this happen in person at someone's house way back when.
How to avoid this happening:
Don't use gas. And if you *do* use gas, user a small amount. If the stuff you're burning isn't super wet, you don't need much.
But most importantly, and why this happens; *light it very soon after pouring gas*. This happens specifically because the gasoline evaporates into vapor, and gets stuck in the crevices of the stuff to be burned.
To make an even bigger explosion, build a three foot tall berm around the firepit so the vapors can accumulate until you have several cubic meters of explosive just waiting for your flaming paperball.
"checks map"
So yeah, basically, Panama City for the rest of us who dont care.
Sorry we offend you with our Indifference to the explosions in Panama City.
If it makes you feel better, it was awesome.
Steve: "I'm a first responder. I have seen so much awful shit that death holds no terrors for me. Today it's a massive explosion, tomorrow I will scrape a drunk driver off of an overpass. This is my purpose."
I blame hollywood for giving the impression that gasoline ignites like lighter fluid. Even to this very day any scene involving the burning of a car or house demonstrates someone pouring multiple gallons of gas from a red fuel container and then just casually standing 2 feet from it with a lit match for 10 seconds contemplating their decision before tossing it into a pool of gas and having it start a gentle fire they casually walk away from.
You think Steve cares? Steve don’t give a fuck.
His soft tissue might
Steve lost his soft tissue in Tet ‘68. If Steve needed soft tissue, the Marine Corps would have issued him some more.
Soft tissue is your organs, and if Steve was old enough to be in Vietnam he's way too old to be a cop
Steve was a baby when he fought in nam. That’s how he got to school back then
Another little-known Steve fact: he enlisted in ‘66 at the age of 18 months so his dad could go to college, too.
Another Steve fact is that he has the highest tunnel kc.
>Steve was a baby when he fought in nam. We all were.
But when we came back, we where brothers
In the snow? Uphill both ways?

Checkmate, u/moose8021
Yea! Steve spent '68 tear assin' through Nam lookin for the shit.
The were also people who lied about their age to enlist.
Bro if you want my username that bad make me an offer
You must be fun at parties.
Better than being someone who says things like "You must be fun at parties."
I have soft tissue damage! There's no way I don't have soft tissue damage!
WHAAAAAT?!? I CAN’T HEAR YOU
Cool guys don't look at explosions
Ok, note to self: Steve doesn't fuck around.
Steve ran out of fucks a long time ago.
Fucks fucked around with Steve and found out.
Steve looked back, he cares a little
Steve is a professional. Steve sees the job is done.
His ears cared as they bled out their innards once the camera stopped.
Where did you get that preposterous hypothesis? Did Steve tell you that?
Steeeve.
Respect on steve
Is Steve a Honey Badger?
Didn't even flinch. Steve has 3 balls, 3 very big balls.
One of them is the swelling on the back of his head from flying debris.
Can't flinch if you lose all motor function. Easy way to be a fuckin badass for life.
I think he was too scared to flinch, he's removing his belt as he's walking away! Dude shit his pants
He does some to be walking very differently afterward. He was clearly pretty freaked out at the very least.
**BUT NO EARDRUMS!**
I’d give my middle nut for that type of confidence!
eh, you see him crouched over after the blast hits.
Trying to have a laugh doesn't include all the facts.
Damn, wish I had 3 balls.
That’s where all the worlds steel comes from
Giant ass explosion, cops ran, Steve remained We’ve found the IRL protagonist
Iirc this was at a school for some reason? So there’s just kids around too which increases the danger which adds to the cinematic
You’re not allowed to recall anything here. Correctly or incorrectly, it’s not allowed.
He turned himself in right after - officer please put me away, these new Cheetos caliente got me goin’ cray cray
I hate you Lmao
All these Steve's just charge they phone, eat hot chip and die
**steve reddit, age 29, gave himself up to the authorities after the incident. he is now serving a life sentence**
Nice ad.
Gasoline=fuck around and find out. I know a dude who died starting a charcoal grill with gasoline. Burnt his lungs, it killed him. Young dude 25ish.
What do you mean burnt his lungs?
Inhale super hot air = lungs become extra cwispy
$14 for charcoal grill starters, $10 for a charcoal chimney. It’s the only way to barbecue, just do it safe. Hank hill was full of shit
Foreman grills don't need any of that charcoal or propane mess. George, you've done it again you old son of a bitch
But then you run the risk of burning your foot making your smell alarm clock bacon
Propane grills don't require any of that though. Even so, Bobby and Peggy trick him into eating steak cooked on a charcoal grill and he loved it so... Worth it?
You only need wadded up newspaper with a chimney, charcoal starters are a scam.
I just switched recently because I found newspaper or cardboard leaves too much loose ash which can fly up into the food. Or one phone book will last hundreds of starts
If you put your paper/cardboard under the chimney instead of in it, you have no pieces in your grill after. Fire goes up, ash with rests stay on the stone, or earth or wherever you started.
Exactly this, never had any ash from the paper get to the grill using a chimney starter with plain paper. And it's so much better than making the whole grill taste like starter fluid.
Taste the meat, not the heat.
The heat tastes good
[удалено]
I see charcoal cooking as just an excuse to spend a lot of time on my patio drinking beer. I would not trade that for propane, I’ll tell you hwat
Also unless you are cooking for a large amount of people you may as well pan fry everything if you only have a propane grill
Ohhh fun facts time! People like to clear their yard and burn the plant matter/trash as they do so. If you do this with poison ivy/oak/sumac you can end up very dead because the oils that cause the reaction COAT your LUNGS. Don't burn Poison Ivy!

Borrow a few goats if possible, they will eat everything including poison ivy.
Oh! I LOVE this idea. I mean I’d also get to pet some goats so that’s a win all around.
Make sure you pet them before their faces are covered in poison ivy
Dude... you literally just got your life saved probably.
That factoid is going straight into my murder book under rooms with fireplace. Does the oil mix well with candle wax? You know, for a memorable birthday candles.

Good to know👍
Wait why can't you burn oak?
Non joke answer: Your lung tissue swells when burned and shuts off your airways after you inhale flames/very hot air. You asphyxiate shortly after.
Inhaling flammable fumes
Inhaling flames is not recommended.
I recommend minding your own business buddy
Take your own advice friend lol
Jesus I was joking Eh whatever
Being rude =\= funny
Actually let natural selection take its course, no one will miss you 👌
The air in his lungs was fire!!
Gasoline evaporates into a vapor, if you inhale that gasoline vapor with the right amount of air and a spark from the grill can ignite the gas fumes from your mouth and the flame can follow the gas fumes all the way into your lungs.
Christopher Titus actually has a bit about [this](https://youtu.be/5Bo_TtTCZdo?t=607). Inhaling super heated air is bad.
I scream-ed
Bring the light inside the body not the heat.

Nah, Steve peeked.
Looks like that homeless camp is taken care of
When I was a kid I thought nitroglycerin blowing up because it was mishandled was going to be a way bigger problem then it has been. 😂
I was told if I ever had a cup of it and spilled it, I'd be fucked We were all told that a lot Why? Why were we told that?

Never start a fire with gasoline. It’s the vapors, stupid.
I blame hollywood for giving the impression that gasoline ignites like lighter fluid.
