    Is why my wife wanted a 3rd floor appartment with an elevator too small to fit a bike in..... Mind you, launching through the glass doors and off the patio could be a ride....

    I've heard that urban legion before... except it was wife emptied a can of fly spray down the toilet to kill a spider. Husband put out cigarette and burnt his nuts... and medics dropped him down the stairs from laughing.

    I remember Mythbusters had a go at this one and couldn't get the dunny full of petrol to ignite using a cigarette or even with a dropped match. They did get the required big bang eventually but took a lot of work.
