Shamrock Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 This was on something like science of stupid, or similar title. Had to do with the explosive nature of gasoline fumes, vapour being more than that of TNT; was like a gallon of fuel and then the vapour if settings were right- warm day, equal to 4 sticks of TNT, but you're going from memory here.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 I say the flash back is plausible. what didn't seem realistic was that the gas was concentrated on the top of the pile .... I didn't look as if the flame he threw reached the top.
boyst Posted July 26, 2015 Posted July 26, 2015 If you ever do something like this, mix half diesel, half gasoline and half motor oil. Then throw a flare in to it or make a long line with gasoline to act as a fuse. Much safer.

Much safer. yeah but how else do we weed out the Darwin Award recipients? gas will suffice, you just need a proper ignition method. "gas fuse" or road flare.
