[Slayven]

what the hell was that voice?

 

[SuperBanana]

Did he try to put the fire out by using a cardboard box? lol what?!

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Don't smoke.
Don't play with matches.

 

[Dice//]

Oh man, that point where it goes from a 'small fire' to "Wait, it's getting smokey in here".
Why was he playing with fire exactly (and apparently oil)??

 

[SixMachine]

what the hell was that voice?

Text to speech to read comments. At least that's what some people do, unless he was doing something else with it

 

[Grenchel]

"It was covered with cardboard in an attempt to extinguish the fire."

...what?

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

The fire was incredibly manageable and easily stoppable.

Then he tried to smother the fire with cardboard.

:lol

 

[Hagi]

lol I'll just add more fuel to this fire in the hope of gorging it to death?

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

I don't get it. He set his cigarette down on a pile of oily rags?

 

[Slayven]

It was like an episode of Mr.Bean

 

[Sami+]

lol, was curious wtf he was doing with the cardboard. C'mon dude.

 

[Chariot]

It was like an episode of Mr.Bean

Haha, now that you say it. Really just need more silly faces.

 

[PdotMichael]

Inflammable means flammable?

 

[MechaX]

Did he try to put the fire out by using a cardboard box? lol what?!

When he did that, it was literally game over.

And he fucking left the cardboard on the fire too.

 

[Feltrol]

The fire was incredibly manageable and easily stoppable.

Then he tried to smother the fire with cardboard.

:lol

Mistakes just lead to bigger problems.

 

[Fishlake]

This is one of the reasons I will never smoke or play with fire. If not handled properly it gets out of control fast as this streamer found out. Amazing that in so few minutes the fire consumes the room.

 

[zeemumu]

Yes, these cardboard boxes will surely put out this fire.

 

[Lucumo]

Text to speech to read comments. At least that's what some people do, unless he was doing something else with it

Yep, it's fairly standard text-to-speech software. And you notice those are comments since it says that he should hurry and call the fire department.

 

[Stinkles]

Inflammable means flammable?

Only in America!

 

[eot]

How about you move the burning garbage bag to the bathroom instead of leaving it next to flammable items. Or if you can't do that, at least move the other flammable stuff out of the way.

 

[redmetal86]

I know there's a Full Metal Alchemist joke in here somewhere, but I'm not sure it would be in good taste to make it.

 

[Daingurse]

That escalated quickly.

 

[Kama_1082]

 

[evilpigking]

He was using those repeated use oil matches. (had to look it up) it seems like it is a metal igniter that you dip in lighter fluid which is kept in the "match holder." Not sure why you wouldn't just use a regular lighter though...

Also lol at not carrying the bag to a sink/bathroom.

 

[Ban Puncher]

 

[Chariot]

I know there's a Full Metal Alchemist joke in here somewhere, but I'm not sure it would be in good taste to make it.

Why not. The guy is 100% guilty. He made the fire in the first place and was too stupid to get it out or safe again.

 

[azure.]

Video of the aftermath.

 

[Agnostic]

It looks like he didn't take the fire seriously. I am dumbfounded.

 

[rpmurphy]

Let me just pick up this fire with my bare hands to move it outside.

 

[The Janitor]

It's like that was his first encounter with fire.

"What is this warm glow? Maybe if I put some cardboard on it and leave it alone it will go away"

 

[Mecha]

Apparently it spread to 3 buildings and one body was found.

Source.

Edit: It turned out to be from a different fire.

 

[TheAbsolution]

Video of the aftermath.

Oh jeez. Dude should've just put the trash in the sink and washed out the fire.

 

[ClosingADoor]

Video of the aftermath.

Damn, seriously? Hope nobody got hurt.

He was so slow also. Picking it up, putting it down between cardboard boxes. Then thinking a pan of water can deal with that... What an idiot.

Apparently it spread to 3 buildings and one body was found.

No way. This guys stupidity just costs someones life...

 

[kingocfs]

Video of the aftermath.

wow

 

[Asd202]

Wow just wow.

 

[freenudemacusers]

he set.. cardboard on it?

 

[AliasGreed]

Is that dry wall ? Those it go up in flames so quickly ?

 

[Chariot]

Apparently it spread to 3 buildings and one body was found.

Oh. Shit.

Yeah, this dude fucked up hard.

 

[Savitar]

Please understand!

 

[idonteven]

Hey let me put this lit match on a bunch of rags !

yeah dude what a idiot

 

[ElTorro]

Wow, that is some top-tier incompetence.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Also lol at not carrying the bag to a sink/bathroom.

It looked like he was carrying it to his shower but the thin plastic bag melted and collapsed in his hallway. From there it was full on panic mode.

Thing is the little box wasn't even the problem (he clearly extinguished it with his water bottle), it was him putting a lit match into a plastic bag full of trash. Fuck's sake...

 

[Fedele]

Woah, strong nominee for a Darwin Award. So many consecutive mistakes that I don't even know where to begin.

 

[ClosingADoor]

Is that dry wall ? Those it go up in flames so quickly ?

First you have those cardboard boxes and paper. Then he throws a mattress or something on it. Next to it is some cheap wooden closet that goes up in flames in no time. Stuff spreads quick.

 

[Cross-Section]

So basically this scenario to a T

 

[ItIsOkBro]

All he had to do was take the trash bag into the shower not feed it cardboard lol.

I guess his was trying to deprive the fire of oxygen with the cardboard.

 

[Ran rp]

when the bag catches on fire and he's oblivious

when he tries to put out the fire with cardboard

when he gets that tiny bucket of water

that fucking voice

 

[Akiller]

All this make me think of when fake insiders post in the hype threads.

 

[Mandelbo]

Man, so many mistakes one after the other! How did he not see that coming?
