Sniffing Smoker

2007 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

Two 18 yr old bright sparks thought they would get high on some propane gas, and why not, its quite cheap.

Unfortunately for one of these shining examples of youth, after sitting in a car with the doors closed and the windows up, and the gas bottle open, he felt the need for a smoke. After all that what eveyone does when they get high.

So he took one out, and lit it.

The resulting explosion must have been spectacular.

One less brilliant mind for the gene pool.

FINALLY! Some closure on the story of the four mooks sniffing propane and smoking! It is as I suspected all along...the victim was, in fact, a BYSTANDER!!! Thanks for sending this in!

While the victim was a bystander, he was far from an innocent bystander. I'll vote to send this one along to Darwin. Thanks for the story.
