This is a question More Fire!

It's nearly ten YEARS since we last asked a question about fires.

Channel your inner neanderthal and tell us about fires, mostly to shut up that smug fucker that's made an oh-so-clever "wheel".

Many years ago in a high school not so far away
One chap in my science class decided to see how big a flame would be produced from one of the gas taps that we would normally connect our bunsen burners too.

He was shocked to find that it had a reach of about 2 feet and his singed eyebrows were testament to that little fact.

The rest of the class found this to be highly amusing.

Only the one tap lit?
Gets more fun when you turn on multiple taps and you have reminded me of something postable.

How long had he left the tap on for before lighting it?
Fuck it, I'm calling shenanigans right here, you'd have got about 6 inches of flame at best.
When I was in school there was one bench where the taps weren't secured properly, we'd spin it and light it. A couple of inches of flame in a circle and detention would ensue.
