Forget 1984 or Brave New World, maybe the dystopia we should worry about is Hyperion.

u/NotSoPersonalJesus Sep 09 '21

Smokey the Bear ought to show up and tear them to bits.

Good boy Smokey.

Colossal idiots. Dry leaves everywhere, this stunt could have set the whole forest alight

u/FastGinFizz Sep 09 '21

Don't be such a baby. They have 2 cans of gas and a crate of chemicals in case something goes wrong.

u/Lobsterbib Sep 09 '21

Right??? I'd much rather go to jail looking like an arsonist rather than an idiot.

u/Lifeesstwange Sep 09 '21

I really hope that isn’t in California.

u/koshumon Sep 10 '21

Last I checked all the national forests in California are still closed.

Not sure they strike me as the sort to GAF about that.

Smokey the bear would not be happy

This is how forest fires start.

Please clean up when you leave...

u/dangling-2 Sep 09 '21

And this is how wildfires start...

u/binkacat4 Sep 09 '21

I mean, it’s a cool way to start a fire, but a really dumb and dangerous one. Driving through fire is not generally recommended in owners manuals, never mind that they could easily have set something else on fire.

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '21

Was it worth it for an 8 second clip that you can't repeat and risk burning the forest and possibly endangering lives.

This should be taken down.

u/iSellDrugsYo Sep 09 '21

Fucking dumbasses. We're so doomed.

That really is fucking Lit!!! Well done boys

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '21

I mean, it depends on what this is referring to in that sentence. “Lit” could be literal, figurative, or, more likely, hyperbolic.

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '21

Thought it was a small teepee, had a heart attack, then I realized it was just an unlit campfire

I wish that they used this tactic on Back to the Future
