Here's some great video of propane and natural gas explosions to keep you up at night:
Fire Explosions

Yeah, seriously, the 4x4 SMB fits in the garage. I have to snug the bumper against the stairs to be able to walk around the rear with the door shut, but soon the workbench will be moving and the SMB will fit under the stairs. Bwhahahahaah!

Is there any issue with the Vodka hurting the water lines or seals?

I plan on parking my SMB right next to my fiancee's car in her driveway, just like I already do w/ my minivan.

Wow. I just noticed I resurrected an ancient thread. Sorry guys!

I feel lucky, she gets to sleep in here when not on the road. This did require a mod to the garage door height as we were only 8' before, but it was worth it to be able to store it inside, at home. And still plenty of room for bikes and other toys in front of the SMB since its a 2-car deep on that side

don't try this at home. i'm pretty sure that they used gasoline as the accelerant and let is sit for a while before the fusee was tossed in.

Yeah I just saw that on Most Daring. They soaked the place with several accelerants according to the announcer and then let them "soak in" for several hours.

Apparently they've changed their policy back to "newspaper and straw" to get a training structure burning.
