Tiki torches are so dangerous! I was at a party years ago and some guy in a long sleeve shirt caught his shirt arm on fire. The people there threw him in the pool but he still had severe burns on his arm. Seeing someone on fire in real life is not the same as on TV. For a few seconds this guy had ran around and the fire was making its way to his head. There were quite a few people around to help him but they had to get him stopped without catching on fire themselves. The smart thing to do would have been to get him on the ground but they were kids who had been drinking.
I am glad that you are ok and that the damage you suffered was to replaceable objects. Thanks for sharing your story.
