Dents in gas tank

I tried the exact same proceedure on a gas tank. The end result was I blew the tank into a flat piece of tin, I myself landed ten feet back inside my shop on the hood of a stock car, busted my torch, cut my leg, and fractured my thumb.

I had a large spool of solder sitting on the tank which I couldn't find after the blast. My wife swore something hit the house, about a hundred yards from my shop. A couple of years later when I happened to be on the roof of the house, I found the spool of solder in a rain gutter.

If anyone else wishes to win the annual Darwin Award, more power to them. I, personally, will not EVER, EVER, EVER again approach a gas tank with an open flame. I theorized after the fact that filling the tank with water with a small bubble at the area to be mended actually compresses gas fumes to cause an even larger explosion.

one day over the summer i was in a hurry and decided to use WD40 in place of starting fluid so i sprayed some in the hole of the lawnmower's engine. I re-attatched the plug to the mag wire, because i was in the weeds (where the stupid thing died the night before) and diddnt want to lose it. Bad part was i did something real stupid, really, really stupid, i forgot to put the plug back in. keep in mind it was attatched to the mag wire. I guess it was grounded also, because when i pulled the cord there was a bang and flames. I was unhurt because i was standing to the side of the engine.

The brazilian man that went looking for scrap does. He found a few RPGs and decided to remove the explosives from them. First, he tried driving over it with a car, then beat it with a sledge hammer. It worked...in a sence. The explosion killed him, blew up his shop and his car. (its on the website. Not sure about the car being damaged, but i think it was)
