Darwin Awards - car fire vacuum hoover

This story is what is referred to as an “at risk survivor” story. They didn’t die in a dumb way yet, but they probably will soon. On the 15th October 2002 in Washington a fire crew was called out to a car fire. 20ft flames were shooting out of two Chevy Astro vans. The fire guys found the man responsible and asked what exactly had set off such an impressive towering inferno.

Amazingly the idiot had managed to collect and transfer a whole bucket of gasoline before a spark set the cars ablaze big time. That was a lucky escape for the moron.
