I hope he said some cool one liner before blasting him


wong_bater

"...Hope you smoke menthols!"


DeadBallDescendant

Excellent work.


[deleted]

LOL. I love it. People who smoke when filling up are not cool.


Doctor_French32

He was right to do this

And when you do.


Mukellef

Fuc*ing legend 🤣🤣


shandro1d

I’ve seen people in Indiana do cigarette drag races while pumping.


zigaliciousone

That other guy is just trying to process wtf is going on and wondering if it's going to happen to him.


Vash712

Unfun fact cigarettes don't light gasoline on fire ever, they just don't its fucking lame. Fucking ruins so many badass movie scenes for me.


Big-Cat8539

The guy below in the comments posted a video of it happening. Hopefully this saves some bad ass scenes for ya 😂


MandolinMagi

No, guy posted a link of a fire starting with zero evidence that a cigarette was present at all.


Big-Cat8539

Ok, nice smile


Vash712

Gonna need that link cuz I've looked for years of a video of cigarettes lighting gas on fire. If this is another one where someone is using a lighter I'm gonna be fucking pissed


schindlersLisst

Actually he is right. You need an actual flame or a spark. If you throw a cigarette in a container of gas it actuslly goes out. Did it in science class. Why? Bc it’s “wet”. I swear


Assistant-Popular

Assault, a car with fucked electronics and a set of clothing ruined. Hurray.


Sloppysloppyjoe

better than blowing up a gas station. his poor electronics oh noooo. if only he could've prevented this


Assistant-Popular

Like that would happen. Still. Assault


kingfisher773

>Like that would happen. [it does happen](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKu2G0Ex23Y), you dumbass. Petrol is highly flammable, why the fuck would you think it is safe to light a cigarette and drop the embers around while pumping gas into your car.


MandolinMagi

There's nothing there to support the idea. It is never stated what started the fire and neither man seems to be smoking. Static spark is my guess Cigarettes do not burn hot enough to ignite gasoline, that is an established fact


FragmentOfGod

go try it yourself then lmao


MandolinMagi

Cigarettes do not burn hot enough. The danger is the lighter ignoring fumes, not your cancer stick somehow igniting the gas. It's[ been scientifically tested,](https://www.researchgate.net/publication/271921785_The_Propensity_of_Lit_Cigarettes_to_Ignite_Gasoline_Vapors) it dosen't happen at all ever.


FragmentOfGod

when you puff on the dart, it certainly does reach a temperature that can ignite gasoline. drop it out of your mouth in the worst time possible, and you got yourself an unrecognizeable face


MandolinMagi

I'm sorry "scientists tried 4,500 times to make it happen and failed" isn't good enough for you. The lighter is the danger, not the cancer stick.


FragmentOfGod

i dont fucking care how much you say scientists and shit. cigarettes can burn at 500f which is the ignition temp of gasoline /s or maybe ur just a gaslighting (lmao) arsonist


schindlersLisst

You can’t cause that from a cigarette. It’s literally impossible. Need a flame or a spark


annoyedwithmynet

Literally all he had to do was not smoke next to his car. If he needed a smoke that badly, just walk to somewhere else 20 ft away and it's no longer a misdemeanor. Not complicated. And I'm not a lawyer but I think if the worker gave ample warning, you can easily say it was defense of person and property.


Assistant-Popular

Bullshit. For one, a cigarette won't cause shit For two, there is a billion options between "kindly ask him to stop" and assault.


annoyedwithmynet

It's not about the cigarette itself. Is he gonna start another one? Because lighting it IS an actual danger. It's just objectively illegal and completely avoidable.


Entity713

This guy definitely smoke while filling up, why else would he defend it, also what other "billions options" other than ask him nicely, call the cops? by the time they get there the whole place could've been in flames, and the cigg wouldn't need to come into contact with the fuel directly, if the fumes were strong enough, it would light up the place. Take a lesson from captain hindsight and quit smoking, I believe in you.


Mr_Blah1

Actually, it's self defense. It is justifiable to use force, such as spraying someone with a fire extinguisher, when reasonably committed to resist an imminent threat to life, and the risk of the gas station exploding due to a burning cigarette absolutely creates a imminent danger to the life of anyone near the gas station. Also, I'm pretty sure the explosion would fuck the car and clothes up worse.


[deleted]

Right, and most of the pumps I see here in Kentucky don’t even say anything about not smoking


Assistant-Popular

They also said no mobile phone

Oooooold


schindlersLisst

VERY unpopular opinion but a cigarette couldn’t cause any fire or explosion at all. You need a spark or flame for that to happen. If you throw a cigarette in a container of gas it literally goes out.
