also, 2 people i know (if it counts mentioning friends) who has experienced really bad burns. the one much worse than the other.
the first 1 (my classmate) was trying on something with his gas stove, and he accidently sets the gas too high while holding a lighter over it, causing a lesser explosion. he had huge 3rd degree burn marks on the face for weeks.
the other guy named Peter had something much worse on a vacation to australia i think it was. something with an explosion. since 5th grade untill recently, he had to wear band-aids. the skin on several parts of his body are severely marked and scarred. it is kinda disturbing to look upon.
