A Blowtorch Game?

Fox News reports that "A 14-year-old boy [in Manitowoc, Wisconsin] suffered burns to more than a quarter of his body after playing what authorities describe as a blowtorch game.
Manitowoc Fire Captain Mark Rusboldt says the boy and another teen were using spray cans as blowtorches. The 14-year-old was burned on his back, head, face, arms and hands. The other teen was not injured.
The burned boy was hospitalized Saturday at Columbia St. Mary's Hospital in Milwaukee."

Kids and some adults do that kind of stupid thing here all the time with aerosol cans.

Thanks for your comment, Nunyaa. Hopefully they won't find the lesson as painful as this kid in the story.

What they do with butane horrifies me. It is scary to see someone out of it from inhaling butane and they don't give a hoot for the dangers of it all.
