Teenage Bus Pyrotechnics
Way back when, we took the same bus to school everyday, not a bus run by the council, but by a coach company (lived in the countryside - ish)
When I was about 14/15 the company bought two old double deckers and started ferrying us about in those. There was no cctv, and I don't think the bus drivers knew how the mirrors worked, so most of us headed straight to the top deck when we got on.
Now, I'm not sure how it started but all of a sudden, the lads at the back decided to experiment with lynx and lighters. I can remember that at one point, they were spraying deodorant onto the floor of the bus and setting it alight. It did look very cool as it took and the flames were impressive...
The funniest thing was that it actually went on for some time. No one told anyone and the bus driver didn't see for at least a few days...

They did get banned by the coach company shortly after but I don't think it was for the firestarting.
