@JPOC226 They r, 1st u dont no if u r standing right on the fire, 2nd, it builds up a massive amount of pressure causing man holes at other locations 2 blow. just imagine a man hole cover falling out of nowhere and hittin sumbody. 3rd, it produces toxic gasses that gets in2 surrounding structures. Very Scary!!!!
