Seriously. DON'T try this at home.


What the heck was that town made of? Oily rags?


Good question. I'm just guessing that the guy tried to do one of their flaming oil quenches in a big barrel that wasn't too steady and he knocked it over and spread flaming oil all over the place. Again, just a guess, but how else could you start a fire that big accidentally and come out alive?
