I was living in a house with a fireplace during my undergrad days, and had a housemate that did exactly the same thing with a can of white gas he decided to use (without asking anyone of the advisability of doing that), when the fire flared up and caught the gas in the can on fire, he whirled around throwing flaming gas on the curtains, wall, and across a large stereo console. When it was all done, just a few black smudges were the only damages, to the house.

We remind him of that event still.
