Thats never happened to me. It sounds painful. I hope you heal quickly
napolitana869 Reviewed by napolitana869 on . Lighter Explosions Has anyone else here ever had a lighter explode in their face? Cause mine did yesterday... I have a torch lighter (mostly for novelty, burns too hot for smoking), and was adjusting the flame when the end cap popped off, exploding into a giant fireball right in my face... I just stood there for several seconds frozen before realizing my face was on fire (figuratively)! Rushed over the the university health center where they immediately sent me to the ER. Got triaged level 2 and was seen Rating: 5
