Speaking of lighting yourself on fire...

One cold winter day, my dad (Rest in Peace) was sweat soldering some copper pipe in the attic (because the house had no basement). He was all scruched up and busy torching when he noticed the flickering of flames in the foil-sided pink insulation batts.

"Something's burning up here!

But he could not find any fire. So back to the torch his attention went. Then, again he saw the fire in the reflection but he again could not find any flame. Spooky.

Then the back of his head got real hot. Like on fire hot.

He had somehow managed to catch his woolen knit hat on fire.

He did put the fire out without serious injury or damage.
