      I’ve put pack of ciggs out in gasoline. They won’t get fet hot enough to ignite it. Ever

    2. Even if it is gas (it could be diesel), it’s almost impossible to ignite it with just a cigarette. There’s tons of YouTube videos of people debunking that myth. It really needs either an open flame or a hot spark to ignite.

      That said, it’s still smart to be safe and not smoke around gasoline pumps. I think this rule actually came about because they didn’t want people flicking the lighter right by the nozzle.

    3. I’ve put out cigarettes in gas as a party trick to prove it’s not a hot enough ignition source on its own. Even after puffing up a giant cherry it doesn’t ignite.

    4. Actually the fumes are much more flammable than the pooled gasoline on the ground. So smoking her cigarette has a much better chance of lighting the fumes than if she dropped it directly into the liquid gas on the ground. Either way it’s not a good idea.

      I’ve tried to light gas with a cigarette many times, and never could. I dont think it’s even possible.
