Okay, well, if you can't tell, that's how I live my life. The reason that I can say the things that I say with such confidence is because I'm an idiot and have done a lot of stupid things in my life.

And the reason I had to push the lawnmower is because I hadn't filled it up with with the fresh gas. That's what i was walking out with. So I went in there, I checked it. As you can see, its the video's quite a bit longer, but anyway.

ah In about 45 seconds, it went to just that slow burn to absolute inferno. And it was so hot. If you look at that video, you can see on the lawnmower's side that the that the ah plastic is smoking.
