| | | Posted by Hunter_11 its a cement drain. cement doesnt burn. if i was in an abandoned house or something i wouldn't even think about using a flamethrower
|
****ing christ man, read up. Ever hear of methane buildup in drains? Or other noxious fumes? It's very real. Here's a few more for you: Hydrogen Sulfide, Carbon Dioxide, Ammonia Add onto that, microbacteria that will make you very sick without strict precautions. Edited vulgar words out because UER is a children's forum. Sorry. [last edit 3/21/2006 1:44 PM by seicer - edited 2 times]

| | | Posted by MindHacker Incase you miss the sarcasm, its a bad idea. I reccomend taping the edges of your clothing if your squeamish about it. Keeps the critters out.
|
How dare you tell him how to keep me out. <giggle>

| | | Posted by critter You have to watch out for those spiders. They are just waiting for you. The ones that live in the drains are extremely poisonous and use sonar like bats to hunt you down. Here is a picture of one (Arachnovicious). Note the blood on the ground from its victims.
|
So what do you suggest I do about them. Is there anything remotely safe I can do or should I just avoid them completely.

Oxygen depletion is not a concern, but drains can potentially contain a flammable concentration of methane gas and if it ignites, you will get burned.
|
dah. Do you think if the methane ignites there will be an O2 problem? Oxygen is always a concern in enclosed, poorly ventilated places, if you intend on being there.

Eat them. ******, just go through them or knock the web down with a stick. They aren't going to jump out and eat your balls or anything kid. It's a spider. Been bitten by many of them, and as long as you are prepared with a first-aid kit (or suck the venom out with your mouth and spit it out), you will have no problem.

Get over your fear of spiders. For all practical purposes they are harmless, and beneficial.

| | | Ok, well, there seems to be a LOT of problems with flamethrowers. So I guess the lesson is just don't mess with fire in a storm drain

My god you mean they go for the gonads? I'm making sure I go draining with a babe!

Just catch them in a jar and release them when your through. If you don't worry about karma just wear thick leather gloves and squash them. Sticks work too.

That's far far under the downtown of a major city. Nobody would hear. As far as the explosions, that's unavoidable when you're firing off big candles. Not my problem, you know?

| | | Wow guys, stay off the poor guy, he's just asking a question.
And here's a pretty good and definitive answer: Yeah, flamethrowers in drains are probably a bad idea. There can sometimes be a methane build up from drain bacteria and algae.
Just in general, don't use flamethrowers in UE because they are pretty dangerous.

Or fireworks. That was a bad idea and I hope it doesn't inspire you. Too much.
