He'll probably die sooner anyways but ya that stuff is highly flammable and the fumes alone can ignite the can .

Haha. I guess i never told you the story about my neighbor that said the same thing.
he will more than likely die from the stress caused by his new sponsored rider.
I've done it many times. Also, when the temps are way below freezing, you can throw a lit match into a can of gas, most of the times it won't ignite.
On the similar subject, you can safely burn TNT, it burns pretty brightly with a lot a smoke. I personally had to dispose of a few tons of TNT that way. It worked this way: guys would collect unused TNT brickets from the field, throw them in a huge pile and evacuate. I would break one of the brickets, light it up, throw it in the pile and jump in the vehicle (UAZ-469, similar to a Jeep Wrangler) with a driver waiting for me, and haul azz as fast as we could because of the possibility of someone forgetting to remove a detonator from one of the brickets or anything else that could cause the detonation (like an unused cartridge) getting into the pile.

That's true. I've used C-4 to boil water many times in the USMC. Funny!:biggthumpup:

Try that on a hot day, in an closed garage, after the pail of gas was sitting there for a while! LOL! You will die!
It will work if it's not hot enough.
Whoever told you it takes a spark is an idiot! Why is it that a lit cigarette can start a forest fire but not a pail of gasoline?
Chester
Because the ignition point temp of gasoline is 495° F, and an average burning temperature of tobacco in a cigarette when you are not taking a puff is around 350° F.

If he dropped that butt on that thin film of contact cement it would ignite .Try it out :biggthumpup:
Looks like those guys had no idea about what they were doing:
As I said, I've done it numerous times, the gasoline would never ignite when I threw a butt into a can. Your results may vary. :biggthumpup:

you need to heat the substance to make it burn
the cigarette goes out before it has chance to make it ignite
