Surprise! People Are Doing Dumb Things With Elon Musk's Flamethrowers

Elon Musk's flamethrowers are finally on the market.

Genius man-child Elon Musk announced earlier this year that he was intending to sell some pretty cool but also very dangerous flamethrowers to the general public. This week, said-threats-to-society were released to the market.

I mean, I guess. What else can they actually be used for besides uploading a firey pic on the 'gram and burning things? But, Musk also had to add that this instrument that allows you to throw flames cannot actually be called a flamethrower.

Ah, regulation. What a Debbie Downer.

But, humans are humans and when they get their hands on something as powerful as a flame-wielding gun, there are bound to be some mishaps.

Only about 1000 not-flamethrowers are out there right now but given their cheap price of $US500, that seems like a figure that's only bound to increase.
