right on. its different from gasoline in that the liquid itself is not flammable, but if its in an aerosol like spray (out of a squirt gun) it is, so its safer(def not safe by anymeans but safer) then gasoline.

You can buy WD40 in liquid form to refil your own squirt bottles.

Just so there is no confusion and nobody blows themselves up or BBQ's their arms...Liquids are classified as flammable, but it is the vapors that are burn. WD40 may in fact be more flammable than gasoline because of some of the solvents, but I'm not 100% sure what's in it.

It looks to me like they had a small flame around it already. Reminds me of what I like to do in my spare time. Take one of those smaller green camping size propane tanks, start a fire around it with diesel or gas and get about 100 yards away and shoot it with a deer rifle. They explode pretty good. We've had fireballs go 50+ feet

Back in my pyro days when I was 13 or 14 we used to take a can of starter fluid and a lighter and well...You know, Burn stuff. Anyway, one day we are in my neighbors garage and a kid decides he will torch an old minibike/lawnmower gas tank. It catches a small flame on it. He freaks out and proceeds to kick it not knowing it was full of gas and there is just this HUGE ball of fire that engulfs him, burns off his eyebrows and melts his hair and burns the paint off the inside of the garage. He was ok, just slightly burned but just like this video it shows how young and stupid can get you into some problems.

WD40 stands for Water Displacer, 40th version tested. Kinda like Hienz 57, 57 ingredients.


It is basically Kerosene and oil so not only is the propellent flamable but so is the kerosene.

Darwinism at its best!

These kids are dumb too, first Brit video like this I've ever seen.

The explosion sound at the end is cool though.
