Maybe fired with real fire! If so, quite deservedly, fired or fried. Hope he didn't take anyone else with him.

As kids do,I once tossed a snowball into a dish of burning oil, the fireball was to say the least bloody impressive.

Oh that reminded me, back in college some friends and I were hanging out in their back yard around a fire pit with a nice fire going when one person's crazy brother came out of their shed with a mason jar full of linseed oil and dumped it into the fire without warning.

Immediate 15-20' gout of flame shot up into the air, followed within minutes by the police helicopter, and shortly later by the cops whereupon we had to explain that it was stupidity by the dumbass brother. Fortunately we had time for the smoke from the joint we'd been smoking to dissipate...
