Chinese man sets his pants on fire after botched ‘fart lighting’ stunt

A man in northeastern China saw his bottom wind up in flames after an ill-advised attempt to light his own fart. What happened: The prankster, identified as Bin Touzi of Jilin province, filmed himself trying to perform the stunt. As Bin releases his flatulence, the lighter meets the escaping gas, resulting in a colossal fireball that torches his pants.
