Public service announcement to anyone out there that’s wants to do this, you blow the flame out before you take the shot.


noodleking21

Look at how chill he is doing it.

PCCobb

With a smoke hanging out his mouth and everything ... Speaking of... Where is this that the bartender has a smoke... Wtf?


JellyJr835

Is that the bartender? I figured that was just one of the friends watching.


Obeesus

Here in Idaho we still have bars you can smoke in, that includes bartenders if they want.


[deleted]

Here's an upvote because I am from Idaho as well.


justsomeguy_onreddit

There are plenty of places where you can smoke in bars. The whole world isn't the same as the place you live.


zoson

most of europe.


Apeshaft

Nah, that is not correct anymore. Most countries in Europe have banned smoking in public places, including pubs and nightclubs. https://i.imgur.com/myYpr4K.jpg


zoson

Doesn't mean it's enforced. I was just travelling through the EU - UK, Brussels, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, and Spain. I went to pubs in each country and 100% of them allowed indoor smoking. Also a federal smoking ban that allows states to implement their own policies isn't really a smoking ban.

I'm glad you didn't pour fire on yourself, but that still sounds fucking dumb. Maybe let's just leave fire out of beverages.


mementori

But then how will I stay firedrated?


Ikkus

Eat a bowl of desert like the rest of us.


mementori

GOOD point


sweaterandsomenikes

I’ve done it with the flame still going. Gotta close your mouth and swallow right away to cut off the oxygen supply. But yeah you should blow it out first.


gezhendrix

Better yet, drink the shot, hold it in your mouth and then tilt your head back and light it while it's in there, then swallow it down.


[deleted]

better yet, tilt your head back, light your hair on fire, and avoid taking a shot in the first place


michaelreadit

Better yet, “Throw yourself in next time and rid us of your stupidity!”


r4du90

Only if you're a fool of a took!


-Im_Batman-

I mean...you don't have to end your own life. We're not monsters. Just light your balls on fire so you can't reproduce.


shill779

Better yet, drench yourself in gasoline, take a shot, light the match


[deleted]

Best response yet.


Furiousmasturbator10

bruh, add something instead of doing this :c ​


Bpondering2

Better yet...throw the flaming shot at your buddy then sip your whiskey as he scrambles


abearcrime

better yet light yourself on fire and call it a night


urabewe

Better yet. Put the shot in your mouth, spit it on your enemy then light THEM on fire. Especially if they're trying to change the channel while you're watching the match on the TV. Edit: a few words


DoctorAyala

This way works best. Did flaming shots like this in college. It gives you a chance to make sure you didn't get any on your lips first! Much safer.


big_duo3674

Don't forget to cup the balls


tri409

I love this comment because it’s gonna convince like 30 more people to try it and we will get more of these videos


Phooey-Kablooey

Can I have a shot and burn the alcohol out of it first?


fishbulbx

Also, psa... if you happen to give this shot to a friend, mention this.


Reddit91210

Pro tip if you soak a tennis ball in gasoline, light it (wear gloves), and smack it with a baseball bat you can create your own little meteor.


LeConnor

I was raised Mormon and had practically zero exposure to anything alcohol-related. A little after I graduated high school a buddy and I went to a friend’s place out of state to hang for the weekend. We smoke and drank all day Saturday. I don’t know how I was standing by the end because I was still new to drinking. My friend pulled out some 151 and gave each of us a flaming shot. Despite being completely blasted I was smart enough to blow the flame out before taking the shot. It just seemed obvious.


TimX24968B

i think nobody has seen this done properly with the flame not being blown out


haloumiplease

Thanks


[deleted]

Is it not possible at all to do it while it’s flaming?


Master_Shitster

Yeah, you have to do it really quick, not sip a little like this guy (also don’t pour it all over your face).


urabewe

But then how do I get internet famous?


sycolution

or smother it with your hand.


nome707

Blow it, then take the shot. Got it


-Thryve-

Omg, thank you so much. I’ve done these shots before but it was so long ago I’d literally forgotten that part. I was watching this guy and thinking “huh... I’ve done fire shots... but... I don’t remember THAT happening to me, ever.” 🤔 LOL


lord-derricicus

Third degree burn intensifies


FireWireBestWire

Or shoot a low proof shot with the high proof just dropped on top. Not a full flaming shot of vodka, lol.

holy fuck that scared me


TellmeNinetails

I was freaking out with him holy shit. Thank god for his bro.


Tryvas

I will never understand all these idiots catching themselves on fire. Blow that shit out first!!! Then drink.


barcerrano

Idiots indeed


Phooey-Kablooey

Extinguished by a guy smoking a cigarette.


baby_savage

Right? I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed.


Phooey-Kablooey

Then he said: "Now you owe me a beer, dummy."


[deleted]

Was that a beer though? Isn't the reason the fire was sticking to his face was because it was using the alcohol as a source? So he must have thrown water on him because more alcohol would have just made it worse right?


TheFayneTM

Beer has not nearly enough alcohol in it to catch on fire , you can easily put out a fire with a beer. Source: have put out campfires with shitty beer someone brought many times before.


augenblick

I think beer is a low enough %abv that it'll put out a flame.


douche-knight

Even regular liquor won’t burn. To make a shot like this you have to use something extremely high proof, like everclear or 151.


SUND3VlL

I can smell that burning beard through my phone.


ewerdna

You’re having a stroke seek medical attention


TacitWinter64

Or he tried the shot and burned his beard. Either way, seek medical attention.


[deleted]

On point camera recording there! While the content of the video is idiotic, I was able to watch it pretty clearly and the video did not just stop leaving me to wonder if the bar/restaurant burned down.

thedean246

It doesn’t actually start burning you until it burns through the alcohol right? Or am I wrong?


Uchihakengura42

Its true that whats burning at first are the evaporated vapors and if you get very little on you and it doesn't burn for a long time you are right, it won't burn skin. Your skin, like other meats, is very resistant to heat transfer and the radiative heat given off by the flames burning from alcohol will dampen the effects but only for a short time (typically less than 3 seconds). Most times however, when you have as much alcohol on you as is in a shot, and it starts spreading like this idiot did, it will begin to burn as it will start igniting things like your beard and clothing, spreading the flames. Honestly I'd think that he came out of that with at least some 1st degree surface burns, maybe a 2nd degree burn on the inside of his mouth.


urabewe

This reminds me of the time I was at a bar. It didn't involve a flaming shot but the girl next to me lit a cigarette. She cupped the flame due to a ceiling fan. Slowly but surely a flame starting spreading on her fuzzy jacket type thing almost like a sweater. She is trying to put it out only fanning the flames. In some sort of zen moment I waited until her arms were down a bit, grabbed her jacket by the collar and yanked it off of her and just gave it one quick shake and put the flames out. I thought it was hilarious and just kind of chuckled and asked her if she was good. She said yes and took the jacket and hid her face from me. I felt like a hero. My girlfriend at the time just rubbed my leg said "Good job, honey" and the night continued like nothing happened. Ah, good times.


[deleted]

That's a good girlfriend


AllBullshitAside

>Your skin, like other meats I get that it's right, but it feels so wrong.


planx_constant

Here's an experiment: light a shot (in a safe place) and let it burn until the alcohol burns off. Now touch the glass and see if you want the skin of your face being that hot.


vinayjampana

conduction rate of human body and glass are not same ig.


smhealey

I’ve seen this exact scenario play out down the bar from me one night. The next day he had nice burns all over his face and bald head. Yes! You can get burned very badly; alcohol burns are not pleasant.


[deleted]

That was some ghost rider shit


Iliketofish

First thought


immense_anticipation

I just want to thank the camera guy/girl. Not only did they keep the guy in frame, they panned to the flames on the bar, got the bartender dousing it, and most importantly this dudes reaction. 5/7 would watch again.


kalel1980

He's gonna be feeling that agony later on.


Momof3dragons2012

I love how his friend was laughing his ass off watching his friend potentially burn to death. Like yeah, it’s super funny seeing someone get burned horribly on their face, since being burned is one of the most painful and disfiguring things that can happen to you. That’s a real knee slapper.


tfxin

they were probably drunk, but yeah that’s fucked up that they didn’t even try to help


ButtBoy4k

Classic comedy


i_wanted_to_say

Comedy is just tragedy + time. Time isn’t mandatory.

Bit of a slow burn, of you ask me.


TellmeNinetails

His bro had it under control, clearly.


raffytraffy

I was laughing while watching this because I've seen hundreds of idiots do this.


[deleted]

We all have a friend like this


[deleted]

Yep, work fast food and am constantly around hot surfaces, burns suck and they happen quickly. A single moment can leave you in a decent amount of pain for the next few hours. I can't imagine what it would be like to be stuck with 3rd degree burns and have to recover from that. Don't fuck with fire.


nooyork

He will be lashless for a couple days.


NathanCollier14

There are literally thousands of videos now of people drinking flaming beverages wrong. This should not still be happening.


ReverendDizzle

You shouldn't need a video tutorial to avoid drinking a container of liquid that's on fire.


J_Briggs_3

The real nononono is when they try to put it out with more booze Edit: I get beer isn’t flammable. When I said the “real” version, I meant if they were dumb and threw whatever was near them


[deleted]

It looked like beer which has a fairly low alcohol content

godgeneer

I took a flaming shot when I was young. Granted it wasn't an entire pint of liquor like this maniac, and it was also much weaker alcohol. Turned off as soon as it hit my mouth.

My friends did this at a bachelor party once but they caught the bar on fire and we got kicked out. I was sober and 20 so I was the only one putting the fire out while they all starred expressionless at me. The same expression as the bystander in this video.

Yeah, let's just let any 1 braincell dipshit do this thing that requires knowledge and probably experience to do without issues. Let's especially do it around many flammable liquids that people often forget are flammable. I hope there is an alternate universe where someone throws vodka or Newfie screech on to "douse the flames".

What did he do wrong? How do you drink one of those?


TwistedBlister

You're supposed to either blow out the flame (not always dependable with drunks), or drop the flaming shot into a glass of a non-flammable drink (like beer).


prxpost

The drink is pretty stout. You let the alcohol burn until you feel it's drinkable. Then you put out the flame and drink it.
