I'd like to know what they were cleaning off of their hands that required gasoline and an open flame...:)

Panic would be "Hey lets get the hell out of here!" as opposed to "Hey let's drag a gasoline drenched matress throgh a house, WHILE IT'S BURNING. THE HOUSE WON'T BURN DOWN! BRILLIANT!" :confused:

I often find the need to clean my hands by dousing with gasoline and lighting on fire. Their mistake was to use the mattress as a towel;)

Wait.. so they poured gasoline on their hands, and a mattress caught on fire? How does that work?

Read the article... They poured gas on their hands and lit them on fire. In the process of burning their hands they caught the mattress on fire.
