So here's what you've always wanted to do, but were too cautious... me and a friend chucked a half-full can of Axe deodorant onto a bonfire today. Click the picture for video...



(note that he screams like a girl, not me)

Edit: cleaned up video in iMovie... watch again for slow-motion replay

You ask me for a hamburger.

I can hear a girl right at the start, and someone cranking Beavis and Butthead at the end... wtf?

That girly sound was Micah, right?

Tossing a deodorant can in a bonfire and immediately legging it is probably not riskier than one week's traffic commute in nasty traffic.

I wrote a long story but felt it was too boring to post. It involved a metal pipe bomb accidentally burning up (think a meter long jet flame - would've been an explosion but the enclosure wasn't closed yet) at final stage of manufacture while clamped to a workshop vice, similar but completed units sitting nearby. It also involved a 35km/h legal micro scooter going over 100km/h in residential area before physically spilling engine parts out through the side. The main bunch of characters of the story were boys between 12-14. All fiction of course, and has nothing to do with where I grew up. Any minor legal infractions related to such activity would have grown old anyway.

Then there was the potential Darwin Award case which I happened to witness about three years ago in a midsummer party. Four words. Man. Booze. Butt. Fireworks. I arrived at the scene when this was just ending so had no way to prevent it from happening. No injury, no problem. One guy broke his tailbone later during the same party while coming down from the roof with a sled.

Aw heck!

The chortling was half the fun.

I presume AXE is mostly alcohol, which burns hotter and faster so it won't burn stupid kids to death.
