OUCH!! Hope he's able to fully recover. 3rd degree burn aint no joke.

Plastic surgery will be needed.Pretty nasty scene.

has a very high flash point just like brake cleaner It happens every day in our
shop tech going home with no eye brows

I hope that he has a speedy recovery. Sometimes you don't think about what can happen until you hear stories like this.

If he was doing it illegally I say he got what he deserved. If not, then that's very unfortunate. It seems like up here we get gas stolen every year from our shrink-wrapped boats.... I wonder if they are siphoning it like that.
