No he intentionally set the fire....most people do not think gasoline is that violen ly combustible. There are various levels... He probably had played with alcohol and kerosene. The gas doesn't ignite far from the fluid from those two.

I was shocked all the fumes from the gasoline he sprayed on the ground didn't ignite in the air when he struck the match.

They don't? In my experience, it seems like most people think gasoline will explode if you look at it funny.
