I didn't even know there was a fourth... Crap. That was scary

I like not being on fire.

@cwbh10 there's also 5th and 6th, which both have a 99% mortality chance (meaning that 99% of the time the victim dies). these are usually observed in autopsies, since most victims die. 5th degree burns completely destroy the bone, 6th does the same, except it has a much wider range.

p/s: it was around 12" in length and widest at 3"

I was involved in a bike accident, I "landed" on the bike in front of me with exhaust pipe facing me, my right leg literally made contact with the exhaust pipe fully for at least 2 full seconds, mother of lord the huge blister already burst by the time I climbed up, my skin turned black + dominantly white, I got back on my bike & gave that dumbass a middle finger before riding back home (a mile away), my tears were uncontrollable so was my voice (arghhhhhhhhhh), unforgettable experience

@TheHurleykid09 did it scar you?

[two0addict]

@ajw9298 yes i have actually had that, seriously almost lost my left arm. your telling me it was painless because it was below the skin??? hahaha dude i really, reaally wish that was true!

[AJW9298]

@two0addict If you have a 3rd or 4th degree burn it is painless because it destroys or almost destroys the muscles therefore you have no feeling.

@sweetkittyka87 In fourth degree burn the nerves in your body are already destroyed so you don't feel anything.

[two0addict]

this is either new or fake because i have had so called 4th degree burns and they never called it that in the burn unit in fresno! lol

oh and painless?? this haaaas to be a joke!

[sweetkittyka87]
