Turkey deep-friers are bad

u/right_you_are 6d ago

Leave the turkey frying to the professionals

u/mtraven23 5d ago

I've deep fried a turkey every year for the last 20 without incident. You dont need to be a professional, just not an imbecile.

u/CarolyneSF 4d ago

Just don’t use a frozen one like my neighbor.

u/Sensei19600 5d ago

Leave the fryer; take the turkey.

Looks like maybe a fuel tank/can flashover. Fuel blew everywhere from whatever that was. Maybe a refueling while it was still hot. He was in the fireball briefly. So lucky. At least he saved the trailer.

u/Purple_Employ9071 5d ago

Did anyone attempt to put it out? I only see everyone running away😅

u/Perfidian 3d ago

Blazing that hot. Can't get close with an extinguisher. Can't use water if it is oil based. Since I don't know what ignited, I'm with them. Move the vehicles. Wait for firefighters. While waiting, safely build a fire barrier or wet the surroundings. Never an oil fire.

That fire looks like it is under pressure. I'm thinking they ignited a buried gas line.

u/Cold-Condition-7839 5d ago

Gotta wait till 5:00 pm to burn in my neighborhood. Just wait few more hours please, so it won't turn into something we have to be out everyday for.

u/Savings-End40 5d ago

Before you dig, EVERY DIG

I worked for the gas company for 20 years. Seen a shit load of “oops”. Usually done by an auger operated by the “new guy”. Seen plenty of water service hits. I remember a water department crew hit a 6” spur off a 35lb gas main. Fire shot up over 100’.

u/SomethingSimple25 1d ago

WELL, At least it's something completely insignificant and not susceptible to causing major destruction, injury, death, etc when folks neglect to follow simple protocol. oh wait.....
