Miata 350 swap bursts into flames on first start... I figured you guys would enjoy my youtube find.
I'm glad the poor sap made it out with just a little hair loss. There's a lot of fail in this video. He could have burnt the whole garage down. Don't forget to use your head and keep a fire extinguisher handy at all times fellas!
Keep er' crankin!

I burned my hand once screwing with some gun powder. The next day I took a snowmobile trip to Cooke city. My skin came off in my glove lol. Burns suck cuz they take so long and get infected easially. I feel bad for him but common knowledge would say to not let the fuel line drain on the ground by the fire, not leave the can exposed that close to the fire, and definitely not use water on a gas fire!

Stop drop and roll! There was no common sense shown. Actually I think there might have been negative common sense shown. I hope the kid learned his lesson, although its all to common that people don't learn a thing...
I have a fire extinguisher at every corner of my garage, and one in the front center. I actually had to use one of them once after a friend jokingly booted an empty beer box after the Superbowl and it knocked a hookah over with hot ashes behind a work bench that had a pile of 4x4s stacked under it. I kept an eye on it and within a few minutes I smelt some smoldering wood smell and emptied that fire extinguisher in the said area.
Luckily a little common sense has kept me from using it otherwise.
EDIT: By the way them fire extinguishers smell gawd awful, and require and a good shopvacing with a mask on afterwards.
