So I burned off half my face

The other night, I was at a bonfire party in the middle of the woods, and in the process of trying to breathe fire using a fair quantity of grain alcohol, lit my face on fire. I suffered first and second degree burns on my face, hand, and chest, and have to take ridiculous care of them all now, but on the plus side, I'm told it looked really cool when I did it (I had lit my hand on fire by covering it with alcohol and dunking it into the bonfire, and then spit over my hand, creating a huge gout of fire).

So this kinda sucks, and is probably one of the dumbest and coolest ways I've injured myself with fire.

And I know that you assholes also enjoy injuring yourselves and cool stories and fire.

So let's hear them

    But it was also really dumb. Ahh, alcohol.

    Well that's what the grain alcohol was originally there for

    Also I'd had a good amount of vodka before

    So you spit grain alcohol at a fire.

    And you got burned.

    Are you surprised?

    This should have been your first clue that it was a bad idea.

    see if this happened to me I'd have made up a story about how I was at a bonfire and someone tried to set a cat on fire and I saved it and beat the dudes up responsible but they threw their drink at me and swung a burning stick at my face and it caught fire so now I'm all messed up but at least the kitty is ok and the dudes are in jail.

    The point of the flaming shot is that the fire is extinguished in your mouth when you close it and there isn't oxygen for it to combust.

    yeah you just need to be smart/brave enough to toss it in there and sober/co-ordinated enough to hit your mouth.

    Well, sorta. I've done both parts of it independently, but I've never used grain alcohol specifically to do it before.

    And usually I've been less drunk when I've done it.
