It isn't how he died that is important. What makes Burning Dan a hero to us all is how he LIVED. When your hero falls, take up his weapons, and his cause. Carry his motto to the world, whisper it to your lover in a moonlit glade, tell his story to your joyous children, make a better world and hold him in your heart forever. Love each other... Breathe. Carpe Awesome!

@theonetrueglenn It isn't? So do you believe that investigating why the plane crashed on 9/11 is a waste of time and disgraces the memory of those who died? We should celebrate their lives, ignore the causes, and pray it doesn't happen again? I don't think that's a balanced view. It is possible to celebrate Dan's life while trying to understand how it ended, and I don't think those two are mutually exclusive.

Can anyone tell me what kind of fire poi He's using here, and how they leave a glitter trail effect?? It doesn't seem like steel wool, because those usually create sparks and fly everywhere.... whereas these only spark during certain durations or when they poi heads clash together... some info would be great!
@pokesephiroth Titanium powder. I think Bearclaw Industries and Trick Concepts sell it. I've heard you can buy it from chemical supply companies (like United Nuclear) but it's the wrong grade (too flakey)

VideoDanceTV will be featuring this video as the 'Video of the Day' in memory of Burning Dan. Feel free to forward more videos of Burning Dan, or videos of the fire spinning happening tonight for his memorial, so his spirit can continue to be celebrated. VideoDanceTV will happily catalog his videos in our Fire Spinners & Performers Playlist, Sending love and peace to his family and friends.
@chesstaipan Wow. That's terrible! Why would they do such a thing? If that's true they should like, sue for slander and the papers for libel. The press has a responsibility to check their sources and not print random accusations from just anyone.
@tigergreene yeah we were very upset when we heard but we are now trying to celebrate him in a way he would like instead of putting energy into anger and revenge.
@chesstaipan That's a very good point. But while you're doing that the media may be having a field day spreading vicious, unfounded rumors. Rumors which can dishonor Dan's memory and possibly damage Joseph's career. There's a difference between frivolous litigation and stopping a destructive power. Fine line bet. ignoring a problem and addressing it in a positive, constructive way.
@tigergreene Still overwhelmed with the greiving process. There will be time for this later. For now please do your part to spread the truth. Thank you. Love and light~
@tigergreene He did not OD. It was a drug related accident. The press got ahold of it and spread some very vicious rumours. When the family is ready they will tell the truth.
@chesstaipan I would really like to know what substance it was. Or if it was actually drugs or if it was a combination and what combination. Please respond if you know.
Our dance given breath by the universe's birth, It's geometry spins from the core of the earth, Excelsior! Oh yes! yes! yes!! The beating heart within your breast, The spark that grows within your heart of hearts, And explodes like a star with blinding art, The pull of the tide, which will not be denied, Shapes the sands and demands to erupt from inside, And so a temple will stand, A dream wrought from our hands, To let flow overflow as evolution demands!
Sorry you had to leave, Dan. Thanks for teaching me hand wraps all those years ago, eating Thai food family stylee, your grace, ease, and dedication. Spin on, dude.
<3
