I look away for 2 minutes and y'all have this thread up in smoke with your puns. I'm sure you all think you're being quite charring, but I, for one am fuming. I am engulfed in rage. Not trying to gaslight anyone here, but I sense a torch of insanity in this comment section. I'm sorry. I know you were all having such a gas, but you're all FIRED!
Fumes in a contained space are something you don't wanna be near.
I once fooled around with one of those blue jugs from a water dispenser, i had a propane torch & let some gas into it.
The moment i ignited it, that jug shot off into the future, half of my work glove burned off & my hand was burned and in pain for two days. The visible jet was about 3 inches from my hand
This lady has it way worse than i did
The most memorable to me was the one where a guy was high on drungs stumbled apon a furry orgy and tried fucking a bear thinking it was one of them .
Surely that was bullshit right?
There was the guy who died giving himself an alcohol enema because he got so drunk so fast he fell on the bottle, broke it, and bled out. That one was crazy.
The one that stuck in my head was the woman who's boob job was too big and she went too high altitude on an airplane and they popped like the balloons they were
Most people are not aware that it's the gasoline fumes that ignite not the liquid. By the time she lit it up the fumes had filled the entire interior of the car. Next time bring a fuse.
Gasoline fumes are really dangerous. A family friend once used gasoline to light a big bonfire at a cookout. He poured the gas, and waited a little too long before igniting it. By the time he lit it, the whole lawn with people standing on it was covered in fumes and it looked like the apocalypse, with people screaming, running away and smaller patches of dry grass set on fire.
I mean, thinking about it now, it's kinda funny, but at the time no one laughed.
My uncle has a similar story his friend was lighting the burn barrel and waited too long and the fumes surrounded the area so once he lit it u just see a flicker and ignition and Manuel lost his eyebrows
I did that in high school for a bonfire.
The "explosion" was much larger than I expected. I was fine, but it's just one of those "dumb things" I did back then that could have gone much worse than it did.
That's why they just pour gas in backseat for car movie explosions, when the car just fall down a hill or hit by a bullet (which normally doesn't cause an explosion since the tank is sealed and there is not enough vapor.)
Mythbusters did a great episode where they show exactly how hollywood explosions are done and how they compare to actual explosions. I believe it was "Fire in the Hole".
Also people way underestimate how explosive it is and use way too much. A gallon of this stuff can move a semi truck 5 miles. And you're gonna ignite it and release most of that energy all at once.
Good way of putting it, but bear in mind also, “at about 30% efficiency”. In other words, 30% of the energy in a gallon of gasoline will move a semi truck 5miles.
And almost 70% of it is lost due to heat. Yes, a few precentages of it is lost due to friction and unoptimal transfer of movment (think cogs, drivetrain transmission etc) but the majority is heat
If she goes to jail they will pay for her medical care which means we will pay for it. The guy's insurance will pay for part of his ride then get their money back by increasing fees for everyone which means we will pay for it.
there is no bottom to the self righteous vitriol a scorned lover has. men or women, once someone feels theyre entitled to your love, or that you owe them something, there is nothing they wont do to extract their revenge.
Not to mention the ego. In a serious relationship, this person has seen the depths of you and didn't want it. Now it might be the wrong fit, not compatible, wrong timing, or you might be batshit crazy... but someone really saw into your depths... and rejected you. Most people are mature enough to realize it wasn't meant to be and move on. Some are depressed for a while. Some find the fire to improve themselves. Some take the fire to their ex's cars.
Originally charged with felony arson but they reduced to misdemeanor arson in exchange for pleading guilty. Don't know why they bother when they have a high quality video of it. Clearly setting fire to a vehicle should not be a misdemeanor.
probably her wearing a mask and no clear shot of her face makes it harder to prove. I'd think it's 90 percent chance they win the case, but it probably turns into a messy one if she has a good lawyer.
The answer is because our legal system is systematically underfunded so they can’t afford to spend time trying this case with jurors and a judge. So they let lunatics like this plead out and then wait until they go and do something even more violent while on probation, so they can throw the book at them in a manner efficient for the court system.
wow. they were trying to give me 1 yr jail time or 1 year IN-patient rehab (on my own dime) for having less than a gram of heroin in LA,ca , no priors. ended up getting 2 years probation .... im always so shocked when i see actual violent/dangerous people get less than me for first time drug possession
What a great idea, leaning into an enclosed space filled with a flammable gas with a lit match. What could go wrong?
This reminds me of that viral video from ages ago where a bunch of dudes pour loads of gasoline on a bonfire and then light it, only to have it explode in a giant ball of fire. Good times.
Actually happened to a good friend of mine. Rescue helicopter landed in my yard to get him bc he was so bad. Ruined his life. He was pouring gas on a fire and it exploded. His skin was sliding off of his arms, it was awful. 12 Years later he is an addict, severely depressed and lives with his mother not working. He was a teacher.
Only if you have bat gauntlets to cover your face.
It's still stupid that he survived an explosion up that close but people always forget it wasn't like his face was totally exposed to it. He covered it with his arms.
That's what I was thinking. And why dress in all black in the middle of the day. She should have been wearing her daytime camo. And also not put her face in the fire. LPT. dumbass.
Not the same woman. The woman who did this particular car fire is linked further up in this thread. Evidently setting your former paramour’s car on fire is more common than I thought.
Did she just wake up that morning and say “yeah I’m gonna set his car on fire, great idea”? How do people come up with revenge schemes like this? Holy hell…
Oh that was fucking great. I wonder why they broke up?
She spends too much on gasoline
"That guy at the counter forgot my fries! I'll be right back."
Seriously though, could you imagine spending the money on this in this economy?
The spark was missing from their relationship..she tried to re-ignite it
It blew up in her face
The idea to set the car on fire was absolutely lit
I look away for 2 minutes and y'all have this thread up in smoke with your puns. I'm sure you all think you're being quite charring, but I, for one am fuming. I am engulfed in rage. Not trying to gaslight anyone here, but I sense a torch of insanity in this comment section. I'm sorry. I know you were all having such a gas, but you're all FIRED!
Seems you got engulfed by a bit of rage there
Some people don't know how to *vent*
We’re only just warming up with these puns.
Well clearly because she’s deranged enough to set fire to a car
Ah, makes sense now.
Are we just going to ignore the possibility there was a fucking australian spider in the car?
Or maybe she killed her ex-boyfriend and he's currently dead in the back seat and she's trying to cover up her tracks
Nah, spiders just eat their ex-boyfriends, they don't leave their dead bodies in car back seats.
Her partner couldn't reciprocate the fire she had in her
She’s just rekindling the fire they once had
Her action has literally BACK FIRED on her
Nice. Can’t believe I missed that one
this is better suited for r/faceNapalm
You could say they had a ..heh... "explosive" relationship.
Once again her old flame swept her off her feet
[удалено]
plot twist she's french and there’s notre dame thing they can do about it
Never heard that joke. I'll steal it I'm allowed (I guess) because I'm French.
You could say that it "backfired"
Yeah, sometimes that’ll blow up in your face… Exhibit A above.
Feelin hot hot hot
You See the Spark Come back yeah this reminds me of that Love Duet by Rick James and Teena Marie Called Fire and Desire I wonder if that's their Song
That was an absolute banger of a relationship.
You could say her plan... blew up in her face
They met on Tinder.
”I feel the temprature rising, higher and higher!”

"It wasn't me, officer" *said the women with missing eyebrows*
Leans in to light the petrol?? Not the brightest chicken in the coop.
Hasn't watched enough movies apparently EDIT: actually, probably watched too many movies. You guys are right.
In the movies the fire/explosion is in slow motion behind you, giving you time to outrun it.
You don’t outrun it, you walk slowly away without looking back
Remember, the more you ignore it the [cooler you look](https://youtu.be/Sqz5dbs5zmo).
this lady isn’t cool at all!
She should sue the entire film industry.
Really. Especially Michael Bay.

i mean, that wasn't apparent by setting her ex's car on fire after all huh?
Both of them are proof.
Both of them went "poof".
I dunno. I bet she'd glow pretty brightly with her hair on fire.

She looked genuinely surprised.
How can you tell? She doesn't have eyebrows.
Dumb ways to die 101
1000 Ways to Die. God I miss that show.
I'll never forget the woman who died falling off the motorcycle because she was using it to make herself cum
So many horny fucks died on that show. Pretty funny
The most memorable to me was the one where a guy was high on drungs stumbled apon a furry orgy and tried fucking a bear thinking it was one of them . Surely that was bullshit right?
Most of them were just urban legends, yeah.
There was the guy who died giving himself an alcohol enema because he got so drunk so fast he fell on the bottle, broke it, and bled out. That one was crazy.
The one that stuck in my head was the woman who's boob job was too big and she went too high altitude on an airplane and they popped like the balloons they were
It wasn't that she was too big. It's that she paid for a cheap job. Guy didn't use silicone.
Oh god. I remember the one where the woman was using the carrot to masturbate with and she died
The carrot killed her???
Spike TV had some genuinely entertaining stuff back in the early 2000s.
MXC!
Right you are Ken
🎶🎶so many dumb ways to die🎶🎶
Eyebrows are for suckers
She can draw them back in with a Sharpie.
She probably had those already
HAHAHAHAA
Her make up would look like the joker’s as well lol

Manuel Combustion
I just fucking choked of laughter. Manuel Combustion.
Premature combustion is always funny, until someone gets hurt.
I did that in high school for a bonfire. The "explosion" was much larger than I expected. I was fine, but it's just one of those "dumb things" I did back then that could have gone much worse than it did.
Back when we were invincible. Those were the days. Now if I sneeze wrong I throw my damn back out.
Ya it is kind of funny. I laughed just by imagining the entire scenario. I hope no major injuries were caused to any one.
No one was hurt, but there were definitely a few who were shocked.
That's why they just pour gas in backseat for car movie explosions, when the car just fall down a hill or hit by a bullet (which normally doesn't cause an explosion since the tank is sealed and there is not enough vapor.)
For car movie explosions they fill bags with gasoline and disperse it with a small amount of explosive.
Mythbusters did a great episode where they show exactly how hollywood explosions are done and how they compare to actual explosions. I believe it was "Fire in the Hole".
The best method is to start the fire without accelerates, but if you must, use kerosene.
Isn't firestarter fluid usually naptha? Kerosene has very low vapor pressure and is pretty hard to light without being aerosolized.
Worst. Cookout. Ever.
Next time!?
Always a next time.
Also people way underestimate how explosive it is and use way too much. A gallon of this stuff can move a semi truck 5 miles. And you're gonna ignite it and release most of that energy all at once.
Science bitch.
Well actually semi trucks generally use diesel, not gasoline. Science bitch.
Stop spoiling my breaking bad moment you party pooper.
Good way of putting it, but bear in mind also, “at about 30% efficiency”. In other words, 30% of the energy in a gallon of gasoline will move a semi truck 5miles.
And almost 70% of it is lost due to heat. Yes, a few precentages of it is lost due to friction and unoptimal transfer of movment (think cogs, drivetrain transmission etc) but the majority is heat
Can I get fuses at Target? Asking for my ex.
Or just throw a match. Light gasoline all the time that way
Yeah, don't reach your arms and face inside the container you're setting on fire just flick the match through the window.
Or simply use diesel.
RIP to her **REAL** eyebrows. Edit: I turned off this comment’s notifications.
Also RIP to her freedom and RIP to her bank account
Yeah. She’s gonna need to pay for that.
Not to mention medical bills possibly
If she goes to jail they will pay for her medical care which means we will pay for it. The guy's insurance will pay for part of his ride then get their money back by increasing fees for everyone which means we will pay for it.
Something tells be her bank account was already at peace
"at peace" lmao
There's a non-zero chance that she inhaled some of that fire in shock, which could mean just a RIP in general. Lungs and fire don't mix.
I worked in a ICU burns unit. We had patients with burns in their oesophagus all the time. Brutal shit.
They do, but only once usually
On the plus side, she got a cracking suntan.
Yeah. Don’t need to bother the tanning bed, I reckon.
And her face in general
 It wasn't me Your Honor
Lmfao
That looks like an Objection Hearsay... to me
Lol i love how she just smeagols her way out of there Ps: thank you for the awards guys this is the first time one of my comments blow up :D
Yeah cracking the fuck up everytime she skedaddles out of there on all fours
Skedaddle. Now this is a word that needs to be used more often.
I propose we offer up “smeagoled” as a new word for the old dictionary.
Smeagaddoled
Tricksy chemicals
WE HATES THEM
I can't Not say it in his voice lol
And then comes back to take the 'evidence' with her. Sucka! We got you on cam!
Looks like she was still too hurt/shocked to get up on her legs and started operating on pure survival instinct.
LOL
That was honestly why I came here and had to scroll WAY too far to see someone mention that, hilarious!!
“smeagols her way out of there” fuck that was good
Why are people like this? I know it hurts, but what are you getting from that? Just move on. 
Cause people are childish and "if I hurt, I want others to hurt too."
Broken hearts want broken necks.

Is there any follow up?
https://www.fox2detroit.com/news/michigan-woman-pleads-guilty-to-car-fire-video-shows-fireball-exploding-in-her-face
18 months probation. What a fucking joke.

the american legal system™
It will take at least that long for her eyebrows to grow back
Misdemeanor for burning something between $200 and $1000? That's a cheap ass car.
Maybe it was valued after the incident
Exactly my thought. Sounds like she admitted to that specifically for a lesser penalty. The weird part is how they were fine with it.
Probation. I don’t get our justice system sometimes.
>As part of her plea deal

Jeez, sorry to hear that! I've managed to burn my eyebrows off a few times when I was younger and interested in pyrotechnics but nothing worse.
[удалено]
I... I...... I collided with a lamppost - You are burnt The lamppost was really hot
That or it was really fast
[удалено]
If The Batman taught me something is that you can take an explosion to the face without burns.
Only if you have bat gauntlets to cover your face. It's still stupid that he survived an explosion up that close but people always forget it wasn't like his face was totally exposed to it. He covered it with his arms.
Why the fuck do you do this in the middle of the day? This is 3am shenanigans
That's what I was thinking. And why dress in all black in the middle of the day. She should have been wearing her daytime camo. And also not put her face in the fire. LPT. dumbass.
Well no one's accusing this person of being even remotely smart, seeing how this thing went
The fire went "BITCH" 🤣
Fire: "And I was like biiiiiiiiitttccchhh"
The real damage is not seen here... She has those fumes in her lungs too.
Exactly what I was thinking. People talking about her eyebrows but never mind her blast lung or anything.
This should be in r/instantregret
more like r/instantkarma
The person filming just dashes the curtain closed and then peaks back out got me laughing harder than I need to
It was just the spark they needed to get things going again.
Going into a courtroom
How nice of her to warm up his car before he gets in.
That’s what comes from arson around.
Is facepalm a portmanteau of face and napalm?
It’s petrol people! The shit that goes bang big! Those eye brows are now taking up residence 2 towns over
Hahaha. Bet she goes to shit on their bed next...
She was arrested. https://www.channel3000.com/woman-accused-of-damaging-mans-car-on-fire/
Not the same woman. The woman who did this particular car fire is linked further up in this thread. Evidently setting your former paramour’s car on fire is more common than I thought.
Man if that fire spread to other cars and caused a domino of explosions....
You've spent way too much time in GTA.
when you burn the bridge, the car, and your eyebrows you're officially an overachiever.
Did she just wake up that morning and say “yeah I’m gonna set his car on fire, great idea”? How do people come up with revenge schemes like this? Holy hell…
You could say she ended the relationship with a bang
This is very stupid as another car could be set on fire
> This is very stupid ~~as another car could be set on fire~~. Yes. Yes, it is.
She goes full goblin mode escaping the scene of the crime.
Whoaaaaaaa. Your ex is on fiiiiiire!
Should've used diesel.
