Banana Suit Fire via Ebaum's World

So...boy tried to copy stunt he saw on website where man sets himself on fire and gets badly injured. Boy gets injured. What outcome was he EXPECTING?! If anyone here is to blame, it would not be the video hosting site, but rather whoever failed to teach the child that FIRE HURTS PEOPLE.

At first I thought it was one of those happy-suit things, where the parent claims that the kid had no idea they would get hurt doing it.

Then watched the fucking thing on ebaum's world. WTH? Its clearly a "you do this..your going to be crying in the shower". The author of the original video should charge the kid for his instructional video.
