Pour fuel in drum, sit on top of drum, have friend ignite. Both in hospital, and not to talk out of school, but this will be a true Darwin award contender when it's all said and done.

Stupidest goddamn thing I've ever heard of.

The line between Urban Legend-YouTube immortality and hospital admission is so thin.

Pretty stupid. The racing community is a little ticked off that folks are pointing out that these 2 are complete and utter morons, which is entertaining enough.

It doesn't look good for at least one of the young men, who's on a respirator awaiting the arrival of family from Texas.

I've heard the other kid is an Aussie, but I don't know that.

Tyson Perez Succumbs to Injuries
SEATTLE, Wash. (July 21, 2010) – Tyson Perez succumbed to injuries sustained Sunday evening in a shop accident in Washington state. Perez passed away at 9:28 a.m. P.D.T., on Tuesday, July 21, in a Seattle hospital.

Perez, hailing from Australia, and Forney, Tex., Sprint Car driver Travis Rilat both suffered severe burns on Sunday night. Rilat remains in stable condition at a Seattle hospital.
 


'Accident'? It's very sad, but 'Incident' might have been a little more correct.
