Have you ever started a fire?I went to sleep with candles burning - woke up to a circle of flame on the rug. Thought, "Tits. Better put the rug in the bath and turn the taps on." TIP: Don't put a burning rug into a fibre glass bath. I caused about £5000 of damage to the house and was coughing up smoky black phlegm for a few weeks. Can you beat that?

I believe it is compulsoryfor students to be fireraisers. Apart from the scarred fingers from falling asleep fag in hand, and loss of hair and dignity from herbal tabs in bed (thanks Dom for the timely bucket of water), my favourite would be the candle on the windowledge over which I fired jets of laboratory meths from a "super-soaker" water gun. Had to replace most of my furniture from an empty room in another campus block.
Catering drums of dried milk tipped from the ninth floor to be met by ground floor hairspray/lighter flamethrowers gives an effective powder explosion too.
Also, set fire to my dear friend Albert at school in the library. It was sort of an accident - I set fire to his Times while he was reading it, but it went up rather well and he caught briefly.
I've had therapy now, and am safe to be around. Honest.
