It was just after the movie Backdraft came out...and we were in the back garden on a lovely summer's day, having a barbecue. Naturally we'd lit it with the help of some BBQ lighter fluid, of which we had a really quite large bottle.
Somebody came up with the genius idea of transplanting the spray nozzle head off one of these:
