Thats not how you pull a shed down... (pics)
Discussion
Earlier this year a mate in our car club posted a video via whatsapp.
He had been clearing trees/shrubs etc and was going to burn them.
He had a jerrycan of petrol available....
He poured it ( we think a full 5 gals) over. Walked aeay to get a torch going...a 2’ length of wood with rag wrapped on one end and petrol.
He lit it......
Walked to the cuttings and touched it to the pile.
WHOOF!
F**k me it was spectacular.
He fell away, nearly down a ditch.
His son was filming and was creased up.
He did go to A&E and now has perfect facial complexion...it took a few years off his looks.
His eyebrows have grown back.
His arm is now ok with new hairs.
A week after the bonfire we were at Prescott Hill at a car event and he strolled over. He had driven up ( 100+ miles) and looked horrific. Red face minus skin, swollen lips, arm in a dressing. Taking painkillers.
The video is not available now so sorry for disappointment.
It has enhanced his reputation though.
We have booked him for Nov 5th and told him he will be seated on top of the bonfire.

t for not having videoed any of these shenanigans!
Someone tried to burn down a shed at the back of our flats a few days ago. It wasn't theirs and was 3 feet away from the back door of the flats.
The flats had to be evacuated and it required two Scottish Fire and Rescue appliances and their crew wearing BA sets to extinguish the conflagration!

Just laughed all over again scrolling through the pics on page one.
It was the juxtaposition of the flower photo that had me all creased up! A quality post from the OP that was pitched perfectly.

Everytime it comes this comes up in my topics, a smile comes across my face.
I'm so much older and risk averse now.
Pity
Yoy may be older and safer, but your thread stands as a memorial to your youth and devil-may-care - as well as good fun for all who chance upon it, like myself.I'm so much older and risk averse now.

Thought I should bump this thread since it’s been linked to this https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&... thread.
