has your face ever lit on fire? (a drunken story)

...I will never falsely claimed to have experienced/ done something if I myself hadn't done that. well, anyways, so, a couple of my friends got drunk..one named jorge and another whose name i don't know. so, the friend challenges jorge to a round of rock paper scissors..jorge wins, so the loser must..drink a shot of everclear (some 95% alcohol liquid)..lit on fire..

the loser did it. i don't know if he drank the whole thing, but his face lit on fire..for about 4 seconds. i believe he got 1st- or 2nd- degree burns, not sure. i'm sure some CCers here have done worse, but i thought this was pretty funny anyways :lol:

What about the idiot lighting the Everclear? He should've accidentally lit his arm on fire. :wink:

in college, we used to go up to the roof and use everclear to blow fireballs.. it was good practice for the sports photographers, to get action shots.

but no one was dumb enough to drink burning liquid.

a picture of our hero. he put out the fire by slapping himself in the face repeatedly and in rapid succession.

Looks like he got off pretty easy. Alcohol fires are nothing to scoff at...

I've done it before, but not as bad as this guy.

One night we were at a party and someone suggested lighting shots of 151 on fire and drinking it. I was the only one willing to do it and so they lit a shot and turned off the lights while I drank it. No problem everybody cheers. 3 more shots of the same thing with no problem. For some reason, with the 5th shot I waited too long to begin drinking and by then the glass was extremely hot so I tried to drink it fast because my hand was burning. It must have splashed in my haste because I remember the lights were still off and strangely, I could see everybody's face with a look of astonishment. Some girl screamed and my buddy next to me started slapping my face to put out the fire. I had a beard at the time and didn't realize I was on fire. Got away with some slight blistering on my lips.

That was over 6 years ago and the last time I ever did that.
