News, House wrecked as man kills weeds with flame thrower. (roof, mould)

[JD59]

At least he killed the weeds.

A German gardener's house was left a smouldering wreck on Friday after he set it on fire while trying to get rid of the weeds with the help of a flame-thrower, police said.

After accidentally setting his hedge alight, the 54-year-old's garden shed was soon also engulfed in flames and despite efforts to extinguish the fire with a garden hose, the blaze spread to the roof of the house.

I can see this happening, fire can be fun and effective.


I once caught a backhoe on fire.
