Smoking really does kill...

[melon]

TOKYO: A man who doused himself with kerosene in front of police died of burns after asking for, and getting, a cigarette.
Hifumi Kubota, 45, covered himself in kero before police nabbed him in Nagoya for assaulting a woman.
At the police station, Kubota asked to smoke.
Despite no-smoking rules, a police official gave him a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. When Kubota stood up, his right knee was ablaze and he quickly tured into a fieball, media reports said.[/b]

That photo is so filthy I think I might just throw up...

What is it that makes the Japs so crazy. Honestly, I think its the extreme stress they face at work.

And melon, that picture is gross.

 

[fcukernaut]

And no one questioned why he smelled like kerosene?

Those Blenhiem kids who were huffing LPG in the backseat of their car and blew themselves up when one of them lit a cigeratte were better.

One, I fell asleep with a beer can in one hand, the tv remote in the other, and a lit cigarette hanging from my lip.



When I woke up, the blanket was on fire and my eyebrows were gone.

Some people are amazingly stupid. I mean those kids in the car.

The Japanese guy sounds like an original form of suicide. I'm glad I don't live in Japan, I wouldn't be able to handle the pressure, once in history class or something we read random lines from a list of rules in some japanese secondary school. It was stated in that list what colour everyone's underwear had to be! And how many toiletpaper they could use!

Perhaps it's just the rich guys there, but I always thought Japan to be a really relaxed country.

 

[Laetca]

I could be mistaken, but I think that Japan is the country with the highest suicide rate in the world.
It's one of the things they are famous for.

Well, that and hentai.

Myth Busters has shown that a lit cigarette can't ignite petrol. It must have been the lighter - makes sense: he was doused in the same stuff the lighter was full of, and the stuff coming out of the lighter was in flames, ergo ...

Everything you see in the movies is fake. Wahay!

 

[Laetca]

I read (on IMDb's trivia, great source of nonsense!) that fuel can't ignite by ways of a flame. Apparantly, it's the fumes that can. Or was it that only the fumes explode?
Also, C4 can't be detonated by a flame, it needs an actual detonator, when you just set it on fire, it burns up slowly.

That knowledge will come in handy some day!

After long research it will turn out that the Japanese man had actually hidden a small lighting device in his navel, which he used to set himself on fire, he only asked for cigarettes because he wanted the police officer, who's father once threw a rock at his aunt when they were both five years old, to feel guilty, thus avenging his aunt (with intrest) by causing so much guilt in the police officer that he would kill himself (remember, the story is set in Japan).
And then Fox will buy the rights to make the motion picture, and Nicolas Cage will play the role of the police officer.

They were the future of Blenheim - now where will the shithole of a town look for in the future with their next generation blowing themselves up?

Hentai literally means pervert/pervasion but in this context that Lateca is referring to I think it means manga porn or something like that. Japanese adult orientated animation.

It's the vapour from the fuel which is dangerous. It's at very high pressure and when ignited it explodes. ie, tanks of gas is compressed vapour with a huge amount of pressure therefore very explosive. So the guy was doused in kero, the fumes would have been surrounding and the flame would have ignited it, not the kero itself.

At least i kicked that disgusting habit. 2 years without a cigarette for me, and i smoked for 7 years. Thank you Alan Carr's easy way to stop smoking!!!!!

I think the only man in the world who is crazier than the japanese is the guy on wairapa cullen's profile picture
