Funniest Fire Stories!

[LukasMcNeal]

Well I know there is loadsa topics with fire stories in but anyway.

When I was younger about 10, I was down the park and we always used to light fires. Anyway one day we where burning white spirit and gun caps and they were exploding and made a huge fire out of the nearby trees as it was a dry summer! all of a sudden we heard a police helicopter and we thought it was after us so we full on sprinted for a few miles till home and it looked like it was following us and we were absoulutley bricking it, then out of the window we saw a car speeding along followed by a police car and we realised it wasnt us after all!

Now I can tell a police helicopter from miles away by the slightest sound!

Your stories?

was like 15 i guess. was on a bored walk around with my mate, couple cans of deoderant (sp?) and some lighters. just doin small fires. then ended up in the park by my house. sprayed some deoderant into a bin, and stupidly tried to light it......WOOSH! ORANGE FLASH, WARM FACE. (didnt feel hot though) i fell to the floor and just smelt rank of burnt hair and i was like "O f**k! ive burnt my face! (i was shittin a brick) then washed my face in a puddle lol, went back to my mates and played pro evo...with ice on my eye and fan blowing it lol. (he f**kin won cos i couldnt see shit lol) i burnt my eyebrow half off, lost my eye lashes. burnt my fringe off, my own dick head stupid self.

so anyway i went home that night and tried to sleep with cucumber on my eye!!! (what?! lol, they do that on tv and in beauty places dont they?) well anyway that made it worse! the thing that scared me the most was if my rents found out......my mom did! but i said i think its an eye infection! (eye was watering and swelled up) she believed me! but i had to nick her mascara and basically dab on a new eyebrow everyday for weeks! (even before school) that worked aswell!! haha. i told my doctor my mate put some lighter fluid in a chimenea as i was looking over it. he prob didnt believe me but gave me some anti biotics anyway. So that combined with savlon and drawing my eye brow back on for weeks i was sorted.....

....But oh no! i was getting a haircut like a week after i did it! my aunty cuts my hair round my house!! oh nooooo i thought! (my fringe was like burnt away to shaved length but the hair above was long enough to cover it) my aunty will notice! shock shock horror she did! but quick thinking prevailed again! i was like "oh yeh my hair was doin my head in so i got my mate to like do an under cut to my hair, to try something different" and she just went "oh right, he'd done a good job!!" haha thank fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck for that.

til this day i have got away with it, none of my family know, but all my mates do. i was stupid to do it and i deserved it. o well, live and learn

final note!! dont mess with fire!......irony is! im a qualified fire fitter now! lol

when i was about ten/twelve, went down the local green with a few friends, and behind somebodys garden that backs on to the green there was like a little area surronded by hedges, and there was three matress's in a pile and my mate set them a light, went up pretty damn quick, then someone shouted over the fence " put that fire out im calling the police" as soon as we heard that we shat our selves and ran like f**k.

I used to spray deodrant onto various body parts then set it alight

Filling my belly button with the stuff and setting that off was prolly the most painful one, it was red for weeks

[Spikenipple]

I lit a lighter once.

[Rich J]

I set a firework off from my bum once.

[Sprog!]

^^^done that yesterday with a massive banger lol so funny, but painful.

umm.. setting of fireworks/bangers/explosives/dinamite:P in my back garden wooden bench with all the fireworks/bangers/explosives/dinamite on top.

lit the bench.

no more needs saying

[tomturd]

Me and my mate lit so many bangers one day after school that the police drove up my drive, got out, radio'd in to cancel the armed response unit, and told us 5 neighbours had reported a gun fight at my house.

Once me and a 'chemistry enthusiast' friend mixed a cocktail of various flammable liquids in his shed, poured a bit out of the bottle into a tobacco tin lid and set it alight, when it went 'whoosh' he jumped up and knocked the whole bottle over setting fire to some netting and cardboard on his shed floor but somehow we managed to put it out by jumping around like the morons we were.

Another time, same friend and same shed, we decided it would be interesting to see if a slug reacted to bleach and meths like it did salt, once content with our findings we cremated it, this time outside the shed, once it was blazing away his neighbour came strolling down the garden in an effort to hide it from him we booted it into the shed with results the same as the first time, christ knows what his neighbour though.

A bet with another friend over whether or not line marker pain was flammable not had a dramatic effect on some dried bushes. We also found a method to make an electronically detonated hand grenade type device, it would have worked in theory but the thing got pretty damp and i think the batteries we used were flat. Other than that it was mainly routine smoke bombs and dismantling shotgun cartridges.

Set fire to a bin on the park once. Was yellow pages day too so had plenty of paper to burn. Stuck 4 deodorant cans into the bottom of the bin and filled the rest with yellow pages and lit it. Took a good 15 minutes for the cans to ignite, but f**k me, they didn't half go. The sky was on fire with floating bits of flaming paper from the blast. Good fun, fire brigade got called though so we had to do one. I miss being 13.

ages ago me and my mate sprayed deoderant all over his head and set it on fire, it burnt most of his hair off.

back in the day when me and my bro were bad-asses, we had a big fire going at the bottom of our garden, it spread to our lil shed, then the massive hedge lol. I called 999 and was like well my garden is pretty much on fire so the fire pregade came and had to cut a massive hole in next door neibours hedge to get through (next door wernt too happy) mum was pretty pissed off i guess and thats bout it hah xx

The tree in my garden just set alight after our fire in the bbq thing got a bit out of hand this evening haha. Luckily we managed to jump up and get it out in time.

Some idiot (one of my mates haha) decided to set a tent on fire while I was lying in it at Reading, he then poured loadsa water on my face to wake me up and told me to get out cos he'd lit the tent

Not really fire, but a mate put a few bangers and some crazy firework fountain thing in my tent in the morning at NASS this year while I was trying to sleep of a horrendous hangover + swine flu. The little square bit of material you put on the top of the tent visibly lifted up from the explosion inside (it's on cam) and half the campsite ran over, but my mates somehow managed to convince some of them i'd had a curry the night before and it was just a savage fart

I set our bathroom ceiling on fire trying to flame-thrower a moth with a deodorant can. I was nine. True story.

One hot summer about 10 years ago me and a friend had an odd craze with magnifying glasses so we could burn things.

We found a bit of newspaper on the local park (at the back of my house) and started burning it - we had to do it on a black peice of text for it to work. So this paper caught fire, rather than stamping it out properly we assumed it had gone out and threw it in the bin.

Obviously it burst into flames again and the bin went up with it, we ran away

During the 'summer' this year we cleared out an old wooden shed from my mates garden, rather than making several trips to the local dump we insisted on burning it - It was a bank holiday weekend so we made a night of it and sat around a huge barrel and had a good laugh.

The bottom of the barrel was glowing red, being lads we pissed about and started melting glass in it and things like that. I got a huge metal rod and stuck it through one of the holes and left it there for an hour, I pulled it back out and it was really soft and flexible.

So I rested it on the floor with the other end still in the hole, I stood on it and the rod snapped, sending this big glowing stick of metal flinging across the garden. It very, very nearly hit my friend in the face, but then landed on another mates arm - although luckily with the lightening fast reaction he knocked it off and now has a bit of a scar on his left elbow.

Atfer a breif beating I was forgiven.

Not so much a funny story, but it has fire.

I was putting some more wood in the fire and a flaming round log rolled out across my hand and onto my lap.

Luckly I didnt burn my little downstairs man when it landed because I went from sitting down to standing up in about half a second!

So now I have a massive burn mark across my hand (I reckon it looks cool! XD) and slightly burnt pants.

Im sooo lucky that I didnt come out a whole lot worse or burn the house down.
