I used to catch fire while torch welding quite frequently. That's about it for me.

My wife was helping me strip a floor with a flammable liquid. I stepped out of the house to talk with the homeowner and my wife got to close to a hot water closet (in the freaking living room)

It ignited burned some of her hair, her eyebrows off and blistered her arms. The liquid was burning on her forearms. I got burned carrying out flaming rags and a smoldering door and putting the fire out.

And then there's the thread around here when Jesus' tomb caught on fire and I put it out. I got burned but wasn't really on fire.

And then there's the time I was at a bonfire and my wife could barely reach the fire through the crowd with her marshmallow on a stick. As she brought it back, she raked the flaming goo across my nose. I simply turned to her and said "My nose is on fire". Fortunately it was only the goo that got burned.

Have I ever been on fire......

Probably about 12 years old or so. We used to take bottles of rubbing alcohol out back, dip our finger in the bottle, and then light it. We'd yell "flame on torch!!" when it lit. It looked really cool for a few seconds with a flame coming off your finger. When it got too hot, you just shook your finger and tucked it under your arm to put it out. Did it a million times.

Then one day, I wasn't really paying attention, and instead of turning the bottle right-side-up before pulling out my finger, I pulled my finger out while I was holding the bottle upside down. Alcohol went all down my arm and side and about that time my brother lit the match. When I yelled "flame on torch!!" I really did flame on. I bet it looked funny as hell with me rolling around and my brother beating the flames out with his shirt. I only ended up with first-degree burns with some blistered spots, so we figured it wasn't wise to tell pop.

I also caught my nutsack on fire lighting farts one time while in high school. Singed nutsack hair stinks like a mofo.

a friend was working on his truck one winter and was wearing the white cotton gloves, that fit like socks kinda...anyway, he was working on the carb. and he stepped back to light a cigarette with the gloves still on, which had some gas on them...when he lit the cigarette, the gloves went up in an instant and then it was over, he was standing there with little remnants of cotton gloves and a cigarette in his mouth with a "what the hell just happened" look on his face. Pretty funny.

If age and experience teach you nothing else, let it teach you that it is actually not a requirement to strip down to your bare *** to set your farts on fire.

No, but one of my good friends caught on fire at Keystone lake on Memorial weekend. He burnt his arm, shoulder and hand pretty bad. He was building a bonfire and was throwing gasoline on it and it splashed back on him. The doctors have said they expect a full recovery, which surprises me because it looks pretty bad.

I work in a machine shop and a lot of the time you go by sound when you are boring out a piece of metal. anyway the operator on the next machine came over and asked for a light for his cigarette. he had huge pork chop side burns. anyway as i was lighting his smoke, his machine started making a funny sound and he turned his head. he put his pork chops right into the flame of the lighter and they caught fire. i started slapping the **** out him to put them out. he didn't know what i was doing except slapping the **** out of him. His machine is squealing like a pig, so he has to run over to his machine, but throws a misguided punch as hes leaving. I am laughing my *** off and he is ****ed. he gets his machine shut down and starts smelling the burnt hair. he comes over and i tell him what happened. he calms down and comes to work with a fresh shave. I thought it was funny

Back in HS we were playing street hockey after dusk with tennis balls dipped in Coleman Lamp Fuel. We had the fuel in a mason jar with a wide mouth so we could dip the tennis ball into the fuel. After playing for sometime...some of the hockey sticks tended to catch fire too. This made it easier to quickly relight the tennis ball after dipping it in the fuel again. I had just dipped one in the fuel when one of the guys comes from behind and lights the ball in my hand. Now...since I had fuel all over both hands, I started waving them like a Phoenix as I ran to the nearest grassy spot I could find to roll out the flames. It was quite awhile till the arm hair grew back. No burns but I still remember the day someone set me on fire.

Yes, a fire erupted at work and the fire extinguisher was gone so I tried to put it out. Bad mistake. Caught my hand on fire. The Baptist burn unit is THE BEST. Not the funnest experience to go through, but the drugs were great.

One time some college friends and I were grilling and I was the appointed grill lighter. The grill was one of those built-in brick deals, and I didn't know that the charcoal was not required to be all flames all the time for it to be ready. So when the flames went out, I cursed, squirted on more lighter fluid, went to look for a match, lit the match and before I could throw the match in the coals...WHOOOMP...big orange flash...no more eyebrows and lots of stinky Jack hair. As a result of that experience I have since learned the importance of letting the lighter fluid soak in before lighting the match and the importance of leaving the thing be for 20 minutes.
