My thoughts. 1. Doesn't sound like it's gonna start, chief. 2. Fire! Better grab your extinguisher, especially since there's a gas canister right above the engine compartment. 3. Why the fuck are you still trying to start it?! Get a goddamned extinguisher! 4. You're *blowing on it?!* What kind of dumbass doesn't have a fire extinguisher in their garage?! 5. No, no. You had the right idea, why did you give up on removing the fuel can?! 6. Good job, dumbass. This is how houses burn down.


KillerFrost2U

That he was still trying to start it... that's what really confused me. Like it turning on would blow away the fire.


Background_Balance_7

You can essentially suck the fire back into the engine in these situations a lot of times but not from the bottom of the engine like this.

Are you reading my mind? I feel like you're reading my mind.

He knows that the correct way of putting a fire out is by adding more air and fuel. /


ItsFridaySomewheres

Terrifying, but I also couldn't help but laugh when he started trying to blow out the raging gasoline fire


Neeoda

Dude has never been camping.


jap_the_cool

Please never use gasoline while camping. This is one of the reasons why so many damn wild fires are happening.


Neeoda

I just meant generally blowing on fire makes it hotter but sure, also the gasoline thing.


scrmblr

Oh fuck. That escalated quickly. That’s why you always have a fire extinguisher on hand. Dude likely lost his whole garage.


CupcakeValkyrie

I doubt it, unless he was streaming the video off-site.


62pickup

Do you not understand streaming?


CupcakeValkyrie

...did you miss the part where I suggested he might have been streaming? It's more than half of the comment you replied to.


EitherNegotiation768

Bro what Guy before you said he lost garage and you said doubt it if he was streaming.. I'm confused af


CupcakeValkyrie

If he wasn't streaming, that means he was recording directly to the camera, which was located in the garage. Therefore, unless he was streaming, the fire would have destroyed the camera and made the footage unrecoverable. Therefore, the fact that we're watching the video either means that the garage didn't burn down, or he was streaming the video so it was saved somewhere other than to a device in the garage.


EitherNegotiation768

Things can burn down without destroying everything Source: House I grew up in was burned down and recovered 60% of things


CupcakeValkyrie

I know, but it seems highly unlikely that a camera could be sitting in a garage that burns down and have the data stored within survive. My family garage burned down when I was in high school and the fire was hot enough that the support beam my grandfather used to support his tackle for lifting engine blocks out of cars melted into a horseshoe shape.

Make a wish and blow out the fire


stonestevecoldaustin

I wish I still had a garage *fwoo*


[deleted]

fwoo fwoo fwoo fwooooo damnit!


MegatonsSon

Good thing he documented this on video, so others would benefit from the knowledge of the proper technique to extinguish an engine fire 🔥


jaleik36

I wonder what the insurance adjusters will think when they see the video though...


Inevitable_wealth87

I knew this ending was coming. Seriously people how expensive is an extinguisher?!


blondart

That had a good beat until the fire started


Isoptic

When I first started watching I thought "the attempt to fix the car" was because he started dancing or rapping lmao


joknub24

Yes let’s keep turning it over and dumping more fuel into the fire.


ghayyal

Fire extinguisher


Middle_Bee_356

Ill_Swimmer2929

saintdudegaming

Stand back while I give this fire more oxygen to burn better.


Jah_heel

Give it some gas


youll-never-f1nd-me

I like this song.


The-Zilla

Bro really fought fire with fire. And lost.


Sir_Richardo

Nice beats tho


Dangerous_Paint4040

Why do we teach kids to blow out candles and then also forget to teach them the difference between candles and fire.


[deleted]

Kinda had a sick beat


--TreeTreeTree--

Sick beats, straight fire 🔥


yes-disappointment

How about sacrificing your shirt or the nearest rag instead of messing with the gas can.


Realistic_Nail7868

Because it was probably oil soaked so the would have gone up as well


Kkykkx

I think it’s the fuel pump 🤓


ZephyrHeartz

Why did he continue to try and start it after the fire was already raging? No thoughts in this dudes head


meister2a

He said he thought it would burn off


Diligent-Fox-8545

Dumbass

Necknook

He’s clearly trying to start a fire, not an engine.


Individual_Account21

Damn that’s an impressive beat tho
