When I lived in my 5th wheel up in Granite Falls. It wasn't about the size of a camp fire, it WAS a campfire.

It was bigger then a campfire, but not HUGE. It was a grass fire and could have gotten huge.

Well Randy it is a 95 Mustang 5.0, beautiful car, 5 speed, jet black, rims, stereo, etc, i paid $6,000 for it, well this idiot mechanic my friend suggested, said he can put a alarm in it for $50, so i paid him, he put the alarm in, and the idiot wired the alarm to the battery and it shorted out because the power wire touched the fan or something

I think the going rate around here for putting one in right is about $100. So, you only got a half ass job done. *laughing out loud*

A campfire is probably the biggest fire I've ever put out. And once when my brother and I were younger, we were making hamburgers in the broiler. At some point we opened the broiler and saw that the fat had caught fire, but it went out when we closed the broiler again.

Quite a bit bigger than a campfire. About five times the size of a typical campfire.

Just my birthday candles..
But I burned myself at church..(hmm) when I lit the little mini altery thing around Christmas in Sunday school in third grade..I'm not a real big fan of fire..When I'd go camping and stuff, I'd never volunteer to be the fire person..(Sucky job anyway)

When I answered this I was thinking everytime I have a big bonfire I usually let it burn its self out.

About the size of a camp fire. In the kitchen. I don't think I was ever so scared in my life. I completely forgot that there was a fire extinguisher.

I got called on that in qualification. "What if someone has never put out a fire?" I find that hard to believe. I would think that everyone has at least blown out a match or a candle or something...

Well the mechanic guy was a Meth user, he was very good at fixing cars, you can tell him what the care is doing and he can tell you exactly what is wrong with it, but he just got busted

Campfire. I did briefly train with fire fighters at the nuclear plant. That was cool. I did, however, learn the importance of a tight fitting SCBA mask. I now know that the inhalation of smoke causes severe confusion.

That`s right. Hell just lighting a lighter and taking your thumb off the gas should count.

Yeah he did and he would not fix it, so i had my brother go over there and have a nice talk with him, he decided to fix it for free then *wink* my brother was not very happy

My friends and parents know better than to put candles on my cake. They used to when I was younger, but I always asked someone else to blow them out for me. I am very afraid of fire, and dislike being anywhere near it (even small, controlled amounts like candles and lighters).

A large campfire by myself.

I helped put out a brush fire that was coming dangerously close to my home in NC. My ex had an uncle that was not quite right in the head (hit by a train when he was young) and he thought he'd burn the fields off like the do down there... and the wind spread it through the ditches and across my entire front yard.... Finally, the fire dept. came and put it out...... Everything was black.

Maybe a cigarette rolling around between my legs while I was driving. I don't like birthday cakes with candles & can't recall ever having one. Oh Yeah, there was one other time when I had acrylic nails and I went to light a candle and after I lit the candle my acrylic thumbnail was on fire.
