I think the safety precaution they were referring to wasn't "blowing a hole" in the rim with a torch, but rather heating the rim/tire enough that the air inside expanded to the point where it blew up just due to too much air pressure.

Like ya said Wardner, a person would have to be totally careless to ever have that happen. But I've heard and read that warning several times before too, so I don't think people just made it up. Someplace, sometime, there probably was a guy who's elevator didn't quite reach the top floor who decided he was gonna straighten a bent rim or something while still inflated by heating it red hot and hammering it back straight.
