fire

The family's waiting and they don't care what's wrong with the oven.

This is why many companies don't encourage wearing your costume to the office.

I would make puns about this pool being hot and all, but they probably wouldn't go over too well. It'd be wheel embarrowsing.

Instructables user PDRWLSN created this pocket-sized flame thrower not because it's freaking awesome, but to as a way to start a quick fire when you're camping and only have access to wet wood. The gun uses materials readily available at any hardware store with butane lighter fluid as a fuel source and a BBQ ignition switch as a trigger. Below is a video showing the machine failing to melt snow. If any of you are crazy enough to try this, please, be safe.

From the submitter:

"On the 6th floor of a condo I was working at. I checked all the floors, and they're all like this."

"Disconcerting" is the word we're looking for here...

But still worse than pretty much any other option. ~Not-So-Handy Andy

Last Thanksgiving we showed you how to cook a turkey using thermite. Now that summer is here (and somehow already coming to an end), it's time for something more BBQ-friendly. DIYer Ben Krasnow gathers his family and friends together for some nice beef kebabs. I'm not entirely sure about sticking glove-less hands near molten iron or ingesting something that's been touching said lava.
