Won't bother watching that.
"[Sparklers] burn at a high temperature (as hot as 1000°C to 1600°C, or 1800°F to 3000°F), depending on the fuel and oxidiser used, more than sufficient to cause severe skin burns or ignite clothing."

His saliva would have helped a lot. There would have been a cusion of steam.
the super heated steam would have been what burned him.

Given that sparklers have a lot in common with thermite which can be used for underwater cutting,
I think that the saliva would have fractionally delayed the inevitable!
