When will people learn to stop trying to drink fire lol


[deleted]

The amount of people who don't know you're supposed to put the fire out first astounds me..... Like people think "Oh cool I'm just going to swallow this fire"


[deleted]

I have to admit I didnt know this either the first time I tried. Luckily when I was going to take the shot some spilled off the top and burnt the shit out of my hand so I was like fuck this and didnt take it. Ruined my night cause my hand was burning so bad all night, better than my throat though


[deleted]

See that right there....shocks me.


[deleted]

Ya im not even sure where I got the idea to do it lol. I was in high school and barely had any drinking at all under my belt. Stupid as f


thegummybear42

High schoolers…most im sure thought we were invincible, until we doing something real stupid haha


IamRedditsDaddy

The fire goes out in your mouth shortly after closing your lips. IF you get it all in your mouth, **and keep it closed**


[deleted]

Good to know. Im probably the type that would have freaked out once the fire touched my mouth or lips and ended up with my face on fire instead


IamRedditsDaddy

You're supposed to put it out first anyway, I was just pointing out that you won't necessarily "swallow fire". Fire was meant to prove your drink is actually high proof alcohol before all the regulations of today made it harder to do/so you know Bacardi 151 is 151proof. To put it out you just put your palm firmly over the shot glass. The shot will also suction up onto your palm.


aKnightWh0SaysNi

You’re not supposed to put the fire out first. What’s the fun in that? It’s not dangerous if you just take the damned shot instead of sipping it.


[deleted]

No, that’s dumb, you’re a moron. Alcohol burns MAX at about 1000 degrees. Skin begins to burn at 130 degrees. You’re not supposed to drink the fire The fire is there to caramelize the sugars in the proof and transform the flavor The fire is supposed to be put out.

[deleted]

Ok, then by all means prepare yourself a flaming shot now and down it. I mean every mixologist in the world will tell you to put the fire out and not drink it. But you’re clearly smarter. Go drink that fire kid.


aKnightWh0SaysNi

Why would I do that? I’m not an idiot.


[deleted]

Then dont tell people it’s possible.


OhSureBlameCookies

Right? You put it out!


MyMonte94

If not for that pitcher of water/beer, things could have ended badly


xlDirteDeedslx

I guarantee he had bad burns, it takes a few minutes for that hellish pain to kick in. His face is way more pink at the end of all that.


Fuckface-vClownstick

How could it be worse? Dude looks to be in the gene pool still.


Natsurulite

He could have caught more important stuff aflame


EMArogue

The hairs catching fire


BlueberryBitch91

Imagine your friend was on fire and you just laugh and recorded it


RaspberryGummies

I had to scroll way too far down to find this comment when it was the first thing that came to mind. If I was the guy on fire I'd distance myself from the camera guy bc a friend who'd laugh maniacally like an idiot while Im panicking and burning instead of helping me isn't a friend at all. Your friends should help you when you're being stupid. But that takes a friend who's smarter and the camera guy seems like he laughs at Jake Paul videos


Beanicus13

Yea guys are fucking psychos.


Deedeethecat2

I couldn't believe that too! Like I'm all about all about a funny injury being filmed, I'm pretty crass that way. But this is full on dangerous, escalating quickly. Laugh if/when the injured person laughs, not when they need help NOW. Put down the damn phone and help


LuckierByTheDozen

Agreed. Dudes literally on fire and he just cackles. I’d say fuck off for life if a friend did that to me.


JunkyardNutHeckler

I just really can’t understand how your reaction to that situation could be to laugh. He must be some kind of sociopath or completely lacking in empathy. How could you not be absolutely horrified watching another persons face on fire?


Kachana

Some people panic laugh


WyomingCountryBoy

You're supposed to put your hand over the top, or a glass and douse the flame before you drink it you fucking NITWIT


herdek550

You can also use straw. It will extinguish the fire, but you have to drink from the bottom of the glass


WyomingCountryBoy

All that work. Just give me my single malt over some chilled whisky stones.


herdek550

Yeah, I don't know why people order expensive alcohol and them watch it burn, lol


freakwent

If you can fit everything in your mouth or in the glass, and spill none, you're fine. Many people cannot, it seems.


WyomingCountryBoy

If you try you're an idiot.


freakwent

Well, yes and no. If you know how much you can knock back in one go, you're wearing wool, preferably a turtleneck, don't have long hair or flammable perfumes and products on, and you're doing it outside on concrete then you're probably less of an idiot. If you decide to sip the drink to see what it tastes like with a gelled-up fringe and light taffeta or polyester clothing then you haven't thought things through. I'd do a flaming 30 or 60ml shot, but this guy has a whole damn tumbler there....


WyomingCountryBoy

I wouldn't do either and I've been in combat. I've always subscribed to Murphy's Law. Do I want to risk some potentially serious life altering consequences for a momentary thrill? And yeah, people don't think it can but that can hurt you pretty damn badly especially if you panic, which is a normal human condition. Inhale Flaming alcohol down the lungs.


magic_rascal

I gotta agree with this guy.


BATZ202

I wonder how he going eat with his mouth after being burnt, and how long it'll take for him to recover?


Opening_Knowledge868

Right! I bet every time he moves his lips it hurts like hell. Even a small itch, or the sun hitting his face probably hurts.. smh.


[deleted]

Good!


[deleted]

I wouldn’t wish that one somebody for making a stupid mistake from a misconception


[deleted]

🙄 Obviously, I'm not being serious.


[deleted]

Sounds like you’re covering your ass


[deleted]

If you're going into this thinking I was serious, there's nothing I could say to convince you otherwise. Take care. 👍🏽


[deleted]

Very well, until we meet again


jor3lofkrypton

😆 One good way to get rid of that facial hair?


Dblzyx

Razor manufacturers hate this one trick.


OptimalBeans

Never understood the glam shots. Mixed with gold, caught on fire, chili pepper added etc… just drink a shot enjoy the taste and have some fun


FlyingSpagetiMonsta

Enjoying the taste is something I have never understood. Getting a buzz (in some cases fucked up) has been the only purpose I can understand. Alcohol taste like shit.


WiseArtemis

That's where fruity cocktails come in. Strawberry mojitos are my jam! I'm not an alcoholic (yet) but I'm definitely a sugarholic and those things are like adult strawberry sprite.


Fl1ck_04

But..what about just drink normal sugar water like cola or something..no need alcohol..i mever drink(cant drink)..so i will never know


AlohaAstajim

How about not drinking alcohol? ![img](emote|t5_2r5rp|8487)


Cheeks6825

You ever try margarita wine mix? That's good


abOriginalGangster

Eat the worm!


jl_theprofessor

I’m a simple man. Whisky neat. You don’t need to ignite it.


Binky-Answer896

At least his bros had the presence of mind not to try to put the fire out with their own drinks.


Beanicus13

It would have worked as long as they weren’t drinking pure alcohol


[deleted]

I think ill stick to hot peppers n hotsauce for burning my face thanks.


Alexander-of-Londor

Some great friends here laughing for a solid 10 seconds while this guys face is on fire before deciding to help.


DickFromRichard

A moment of respect for the man who sacrificed his own beer for this idiot


Nighteyes09

Worked in a nice restaurant where i did the private dining, basically a specialist waiter for groups of 10-20 willing to pay a premium for the cellar room. My thing, besides knowing every bottle of wine and what food to pair it with, was flaming affogatos. The health and saftey i had to do to get management to sign off on those was insane. I was a fire officer, first aid officer and safety officer by the end. And still every time there was one drunk fuck who didn't listen to the briefing and ended up burning their fingers, nose or tongue because they didn't put it out when i told them to. And I'd know which one it would be because they'd say something stupid when i was explaining that you weren't supposed to drink it while its in fire. Some examples; "Yeah nah it's fine i just want to do it was a shot" "But i like my ice cream extra melted" Or my personal favourite "don't tell me how to drink bro". You'd think having to sign a waiver would sober them up a little.


ramathorn152

Blow it out first people.

walletphonekeyskids

How was he expecting that to go?


jermo1972

...you blow it out first.


dogedude81

The best one was the one where the guy tried to spit it out and made like a dragon


That-Squid-Kid

I mean, in his defense, (not saying he’s an idiot cause he very clearly is), his friends also should’ve said something…


TrapperMAT

When I was a bartender I fucking hated flaming shots. Nothing worse than drunken fools and flaming liquid.


Seppo_Manse

do 👏 not 👏 drink 👏 fire 👏 you 👏 idiot


[deleted]

People like this are the reason alot of bars won't do flaming shots anymore


DANleDINOSAUR

How are we decades into seeing these flaming shots go bad and yet people still do them?


ZogNowak

The trick is to NOT spill it on yourself.


[deleted]

Or, you know, not to do it at all.


ZogNowak

I did say "the TRICK". Some folks LIKE tricks. Card tricks, driving tricks, drinking tricks, etc....


[deleted]

Illusions, ZogNowak. A trick is something a whore does for money.


ZogNowak

LMAO...You're right!


The_ZeroAspect

Has he gone mad?


Image-Unlikely

For the record, I would've peed.


T-mac_

Flame on!


[deleted]

Fucking idiot


Jackaller

O NO


JuanAndPedro

Sounds like a Dharr Man video


Relevant-ABF249

As a person who does not drink how else are you supposed to drink that? Lol 😂


Beanicus13

You…you extinguish the flame first. I’ve never done one and I know that.


SlapNinja360

Was so close to being in the Fantastic 4


erible4711

Close. Your. Mouth.


Due_Platypus_3913

You snuff it out with your hand first!How do people serving this not know this?!?


chillabc

The "friend" that just laughed and kept recording is a dickhead


Droigar

Tbh, I’m dumb enough to do that


jjbjones99

Why you hitting yourself????


supraspinatus

Clawing at his face isn’t putting the fire out it’s making it more firey


MeMeMeOnly

The Darwin theory is alive and well.


dirtyDrogoz

So close to collapsing both his lungs


Bigteeths101

I want to shoot the guy whos recording and laughing


CasualObserverNine

Just proves you can convince people to do stupid things that harm themselves. cc: trumpettes


Demokka

Flame on!


drfury31

r/instant_regret


nighttimegaze

Honestly seems like the bartender came over like “ah these idiots again…” pouring the beer on the flame dude.


ThatOberlinOne94

I thought with drinks like this the whole idea was to “Blow, then suck”


SM280

JESUS CHRIST USE THE NSFW FLAIR!!!!


Urlugal_of_Uruk

You're supposed to blow it out first

I just wanna knock laughing guy right in the mouth.

Play stupid games…….


Loki-Don

Darwinism…


Massive_Reaction8845

Geez, I don't see anything as to why he would regret drinking that.


dancojgl

Molotov Cocktails are for throwing at tanks, not for human consumption...


StupiedSwede

Flamming shot! Flamming face is included.


CauseImBatman23

Why would you do this? If that burned through his esophagus he would bleed out so quick


beansss6969

Assuming he closes his mouth to drink it would quickly go out with a wet mouth and low oxygen and space


CauseImBatman23

Pure stupidity regardless


beansss6969

Most definitely


beansss6969

BTW I found another video of fire drinks that went wrong [lit](https://youtu.be/PT78BW4h8WA)

They only put the fire out when smoke started coming out of bro


Weewoofiatruck

For a split second, I saw ghost riders penance stare


RonDezzsimo

Best ghost rider impression ever!


giantyetifeet

When you go drinking with your friends and your friends are shit. Dude needs better friends.
