Talk about caught redhot-handed.
A man spontaneously caught on fire in a San Francisco porn store Wednesday evening as he was watching what was presumably an x-rated film.
CBS San Francisco reports that the man had been “watching videos in a private booth at the adult arcade when the fire ignited.”
Police officers across the street from the porn shop saw a man run out the front door of the store “engulfed in flames,” SFPD Lt. Troy Dangerfield said.
And now we have the horrifying footage that captures this unfortunate incident. You see the man–who literally appears on screen as a burning ball of fire–running through the store, scattering the crowd, as he escapes outdoors.
Watch:
The man was treated for “severe burns” that engulfed “over 90% of his body.”

Posted on April 15, 2011 at 11:10pmThe Department of Homeland Security, the ATF, the Consumer Protection Agency and of course, the EPA have reviewed this unfortunate incident and for your own protection the following regulations have been passed. Henceforth ALL X rated movies must contain a warning on both the package and during the intro concerning spontaneous combustion. All packages must be sold ONLY to those who have in their possesion an extinquisher or easy access to such a devise. Homeland Security will be strip searching you to determine if you have any flammable materials on your person. All liquids found on your person will be confiscated immediately. Matches and of course the dreaded lighter, will be confiscated as well. Should you, even after all these safety precautions. burst into flames the EPA will be fining you for the illegal use of oxygen consumed by the flames. Should you die they will be fining your heirs. Should it be determined that even after all of these precautions the actual combustion was caused by alcohol the ATF will shoot you. Have a nice day!

Love how the liberal media responds with the race pandering statement…..”… the man spontaneously just burst into flames, bizzarre.” No actually loser the stupid moron lit himself on fire with a crack pipe.
