New Delhi: Be it a circus, a bar or a club show, enticing fire stunts have always been something we have all looked forward to. However, we have also seen special cautions and safety measures being taken in case a fire show is involved.

In the present times, people tend to execute several stunts with little or no practice for various reasons, garnering popularity of social media being one of them.

A horrifying video of a young man attempting a fire stunt and getting severely injured in the process has surfaced online, leaving netizens biting their nails with fear. In the clip, the man can be seen holding a stick with fire in one hand and taking a sip of a flammable liquid with the other. As soon as he blows it into the fire stick, flames go up in the air earning praise from the audience, though within seconds the flames catch his beard.

The flames continue to grow strong despite man’s efforts to get rid of them, while his associates rush to help him out. His fellows repeatedly slapped the flames to slow them down, however, no fire extinguisher can be spotted nearby for emergency situations.
