00:00I had done a bonfire the night before and then I went the next morning to go

00:07check it to see if everything had burned. Like an idiot, I checked it and there

00:12was some debris left around the whole thing so I had some gas in the vehicle

00:17with me so I poured a little bit around the outside of it and then I even like

00:22still doing other things that are like to be safer and take the gas can up away

00:28from the fire make sure the vehicle was up away from the fire and then I'm

00:32walking around looking for a some kind of long stick to ignite it with and just

00:39my lack of patience got the better of me and I thought I'll be alright you know

00:44it's it's not that big anymore so I walked over and I bent down and where I

00:50could see some branches sticking out from the edge of the pile and lit it it

00:54just boom like all around my face I could feel the heat hit my face and then

01:00I pulled my hands up like this and kind of jump backwards away from it and when

01:06I stood up I just kind of took a fraction of a second to see like what

01:10does my body feel like and it was just immediately so hot and I looked at my

01:15arm and I could see the skin just peeling back like before my eyes

01:20probably not a great idea but I drove to the emergency place in town and as I'm

01:26driving I can see it just still peeling back and then they said I needed to go

01:31to Des Moines because they were like a more well more well-equipped for this
