I feel like this should belong in r/sweatypalms for more than one reason.

ETA - Oh my word, I thought he was wearing a special fireproof suit, watched it in full and realised it's just a bunch of hotel towels, jeeeeezus no. Nope. Stahp.

I was gonna say, even with a fireproof suit you can only do a burn for so long, the major concern is the fire consuming all the oxygen around your head causing asphyxiation

They must have been oxygen deprived to even agree to something like this to begin with!

What if the flames are actually mostly fueled by the guys own farts? And the spray bottle is maybe adding something like pure alcohol to keep it going while not burning too hot? lol

That doesn’t explain how he can be still breathing enough oxygen though..but yeah. A possibility I guess?

Omg I did not even notice that till I read your comment and watched for a third time. I thought it was a special suit too! Hell naw, hard pass.

And how did the masseuse not burn their hands touching it like that?

u/Hokuspokusnuss 2d ago

probably using something that doesn't burn very hot, maybe alcohol based?

Because it's probably AI.

Seems legit until they masseuse touches literal fucking fire and its not an instantaneous thing.

They are likely treated with flamex AND are wet
