  • 0:42 "Flamer" Wha????

  • @autonomousperson Yea I know.. of all the things I could have said I had to say flamer...

  • Take it to Walmart and in a stern voice ask them to exchange it.

    If they say no make a big scene,leave it on the counter and stomp out of the place.

  • @GatheringSticks haha that would be funny but I work in retail so I wouldn't do that to them :P

  • Great burn! I like the cough too. That is the best flamer I have seen.

  • @AllAmericanFiveRadio Thanks :D might as well have some fun before I dispose of it!

  • Oh no you ruined it... :-) 

  • uh oh, you let the smoke out, now it wont work. But if you can figure out how to put the smoke back in it will be fine.

  • mmmmmmm moter smoke, dont breath this!!

  • @dnave21 That happened once to me, too. It was a motor from my 1950's Belco "Jet-Aire" window fan that I have. Except in my case, when I plugged it in after removing charred cardboard from the stator posts, the motor had literally the 4th of July inside the housing! Thankfully, as it is an A/C motor, I was able to get it going again by simply rewinding the stator.

  • @metalmoto I had a fan motor explode. It scared the shit out of me.

  • I had an electric leaf blower burst into flames while I was using it.

  • Eugh, I know that awful stink a mile off! Nice video!
