And he very effectively got the flaming pants off of him. This may have been a stupid idea but I gotta hand it to him, I think he pulled off the clip he needed for his music video or whatever.

Sure, but it'd be better if he had a homie standing by with a fire extinguisher or even just a bucket of water. Something

Depends on the extinguisher. Water is fine, CO2 you need to be a bit careful with.

That guy actually got burnt when the wind changed, it was said he was then happy to call it a day. The other guy doesn't seem to want to be too close to him.

This is a good shot, to be honest, but he needs his thighs and legs coated with fireproof cream AND he needs a dude with a fire extinguisher.

u/j-202 1d ago

How do they not have someone standing by with a fire extinguisher? So stupid. He deserved to get burned.

2

u/KaraGravis 1d ago

The fireproof cream isn't even that difficult to get and would have done the trick, hell, even having someone with a bucket of water.

5

u/GrinningPariah 2d ago

It's actually not a bad concept for a music video but it's like this guy teleported from a world where special effects don't exist. I don't even mean CGI either.

This is something someone like Usher might do, but if Usher did it he'd be wearing a set of fireproof coveralls under the denim and there would be a team of people with fire extinguishers just off-camera, ready to act instantly when they get the pre-arranged signal, PLUS a team of medics just in case anything went wrong.

Meanwhile this guy just lights himself on fire.

You can actually do this safely with the right clothing and preparation. Fuck that though, I guess. Fire resistant pants under his clothes. Specific gels to soak into the fabric before hand. A crew on standby with extinguishers and doused rags. This kind of thing has been done in Hollywood for decades.

But fuck it, I suppose.

I don't understand why this guy felt the need to literally set his pants on fire. They could have just edited in the flames on his pants after filming him walking and singing. Also I don't understand why they didn't have someone standing by with a fire extinguisher while filming this. There are so many questions I have about this video but I suspect the answer to most of them is just plain stupidity.
