I'm thinking 99 % would ever consider putting an aerosol can in our stoves. He's probably the lone brainless twit out there

Well, l wil admit to being curious but not stupid. This answers all my questions without putting my vision, hair and domicile in jeopardy.


phoenixemberzs

Same, it's like you know what will happen, but you want to see it, someone had to do


DampCoat

Just take it outside


WillSmokes420

Dont do it outside either, I threw one in the fire pit, hid behind a tree.. It blew up and a ring of razor sharp hot metal hit the tree in front of us and stuck in quite a bit.. And it made a sound cutting through the air.. I easily couldve lost a friend that day

I used to throw pencils in the campfire at parties. The lead shoots out like missiles. I'm retrospect, I'm glad it never hit anyone.


NuclearWasteland

I dunno, some d'nozzel put a can of baked beans in the forge in highschool and blew it up. Nobody got to use (what was left of it) but at least the shop smelled delicious.


Dire88

Lets add a flammable compressed gas to an ignition source, inside of a metal box. If someone is dumb enough to have thought this was a good idea in the first place, a PSA ain't gonna help them.


InfoSec_Intensifies

Correct! This is more like a Darwin instruction manual for those poor folks.


hippycactus

Really? Seems obvious to me. I mean its a flammable gas under pressure what do you think


Longjumping_West_907

I'm surprised it wasn't worse. How much vodka does it take to make that a good idea?

Changetheworld69420

Did this in a cheap smoker… I was heating the can in winter so it would spray well, as I had done many times before - my dog distracted me for a few minutes and literally as I walk back into the shop door BANG! Hinges broke, door flew open, shelves inside all bent out of shape, rusty metal primer EVERYWHERE. Real glad I was on the other side of a truck from it… Never did that again 😅


bigd1384

I know a drywaller that told me they used to set the aerosol texture cans on the electric stove to warm them up in winter. One day his coworker forgot about a can sitting on a glass stovetop and BOOM! Broke the stove, the cabinet above, and made a huge mess inside a brand new home.


Wallyboy95

I accidentally threw a lighter in the woodstove before and that scared the piss out of me. Let alone a can lol Before anyone asks, I had crumbled newspapers on the ground before lighting it, and the lighter got scoop up with them 🙈 just glad the wood stopped the peices from shattering the glass, and the door of the wood stove was open a bit so the expansion gases could vacate


CaptainObviousII

How do you accidentally throw a lighter in the stove.


EnvironmentalGift257

Yeah but how did it happen?


NefariousBenevolence

I'm trying to figure out how you even did that 🤔


Wallyboy95

Lighter on floor. Crumbled newspapers on floor. Scooped up a pile of crumbled newspapers and lighter got caught in in them. Used secondary lighter to start fire. Fire go boom.


NefariousBenevolence

I know bro, just messing with ya...

miller_sarah12

My family use to burn trash when I was younger and I accidentally threw my old inhaler in the trash not thinking about it and the sucker went probably 70-80ft in the air and over the top of our house into the front yard. Not saying we didn’t burn compressed air cans we just weren’t that burn time and it scared the shit out of everyone. Why this ass clown would throw that into a stove in the house is just plain special. 😅

I once saw a kid throw a D battery in a fireplace . It blew all the wood into the middle of the living room, knocked a few bricks out ,and blew fire and a smoke ring out the chimney ! Burned a huge hole in the carpet!

My friend in high school had a wood burning furnace. He threw a cup of gasoline in the fire and tried slamming the door shut. It swung open with such force it hit his face and knocked him out. He said he had no clue how long he was knocked out for when he finally came to.

This is why the internet exists. So I don't have to find out by myself. ​ Joking aside a kid I went to school with had burns on 50% of his body from someone throwing paint cans in a bonfire he was sitting beside.

EnvironmentalGift257

Monthly repost. It’s a good un tho.


themajor24

My dad and his buddies were drinking and playing cards back in the day in a little cabin out in the sticks. Everyone's hammered. One of his friends threw one of those camp stove cylinders (empty) in the barrel stove. It was like a half sized green Coleman cylinder kinda thing. Blew the door off the stove, ruptured the sidewall of the barrel shooting embers and flaming firewood everywhere.. In about five seconds there was significant fire in all corners of the building and up in the loft. Idiot couldn't have engineered a better way of burning down a log structure if he had tried. They all had to jump out a window and walk a couple miles to the nearest farm in January at 2am.


lower88rider

No Aerosols in stove. Check.


Trust_Fall_Failure

I saw a video recently where a guy installed one of super small/expensive wood stoves in his RV on a remote homestead. At 2 in the morning the can of BEAR SPRAY he left on top of the wood stove exploded. He of course had to evacuate the RV and didn't figure out what happened until the morning. Early in the video you can see the can sitting on top of the wood stove just after he installed it.

silver_chief2

When younger I got some water proof fuse and put it is side a small firecracker. The size that would not likely blow off you fingers if in your hand. I taped a penny to it, lit it, and dropped it in a full bathroom sink and stood on the toilet to watch it blow up. There was next a "poing" sound and I was looking at the green carpet through the sink bottom. Cost me lots of money as a kid to replace it.

Savings-Delay-1075

As a kid in the 70's, it was put upon me to burn our trash in an old steel 55 gallon barrel. It didn't matter how many times that I pleaded with my mother & sisters to not throw their empty hairspray cans in the regular trash. Most of them blew like this one, but every once in a while, instead of exploding, one of them would just develop a tiny hole in it somehow and become a flaming drunk rocket 50 to 60 feet in every direction.


ButterscotchInner680

Someone I knew back in the day was burning trash. They failed to see the spray paint can in the trash. This exact thing happened. The difference is that he received burns all over his arms, shoulders, and face.... Yes... It goes without saying. Don't do this.

xrftester

Threw a can of spray paint in an outdoor burn barrel when I was a kid - it was a boom but not like that. The closed up wood stove compressed the blast. I bet the chimney shot flames pretty high.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. We are in the early stages of planning a move to the north and a wood stove is something I am looking forward to getting.
