VIDEO: Bonfire building made easy with jet-powered car

As a former Boy Scout, I learned a variety of creative ways to set things alight, usually involving some type of accelerant. These guys have dreamt up a way that even pyromaniac 12 year olds can't top. We're guessing that thet don't worry about rain soaking their matches -- they just wheel out the Pratt & Whitney and give a couple squeezes on the afterburner. It's an awful lot of effort to burn a pile of sticks, and if you're not careful, you could blow a semi-lit mass of twigs clear to the next block. I love the way they stand there admiring their work, drinking beer at the very end of the video. Does it get any finer than that?

ooookaaay. I think you guys got it with the first couple of burns. The other 15 or so may have been supurfulous.
