If you're wondering "What was the point of...?", I think you could start a lot earlier than the bat....

True....but I thought they were just going to stand back and let it blow up...and if they got far away then at least they were being a LITTLE cautious. Still idiots though.

When am I not? . If you mean, do I want to copy these guys, no. I'm just curious what would cause the melon to stay on fire, but then burst into flames when hit?
