I would have assumed this was within the bounds of common sense, but, you know, you can never be too careful. Apparently the notion wasn’t obvious to this fellow, who blew apart an entire gas station through his idiot-curiosity.

Maybe it was the fumes? Maybe it was a fundamental misunderstanding of what gasoline is and what it does? Maybe this was some sort of performance art? Either way, look very carefully at this video, and never, ever do it yourself. [via Reddit]
