Makes you have to recall the old Hank Williams song—- “Setting the woods on fire”. Yes he has to be hurting and a cool baking soda bath should not do the job of cooling him off. .
I hope and pray for this persons recovery. As much as I despise this sort of thing, I wish to see nothing suffer. I am sure this will be a life altering event for this person.

Well his whole family and everyone who knows him well will know he did this.
Some area hospital will also end up with him, or they will have to take him
to another state somewhere and make up a story.
Karma is mean sometimes.
I probably should feel bad that someone got burned because I feel that would be a terrible thing to go through. HOWEVER, it’s not like he accidently got burned, he went to someones house and intentionally set fire to their property. I think he got what he deserved. Maybe they should check the local hospitals for people who came in with lots of burns. I hope they catch these two.
ha!! thats what he gets for torching someones car!…you play you pay !
Looks like at least one of them learned a hard lesson!
Burning Man 2011, moves from Black Rock, to Santa Rosa. I am surprised that I feel pity for this idiot.
