the best way is to take your lawn mower to the nearest body of water, like a lake, or maybe a wildlife reserve, and just dump the gas in there

Pretty stupid method, How bout, tipping the mower almost on its side, removing the fuel line, placing a pop bottle over the stub, tipping the mower back down and have the gas run into the pop bottle, and when the gas is almost all gone, tip the mower slightly, remove the pop bottle and replace the fuel line back onto the stub?
@ 1:10 major gas spill and @ 2:05, fire hazard from clanking pliers.
It doesn't take a piece of paper education to fix a goddamn lawnmower...

RISE=RINSE. Note: Listen to the metallic clink of the plyers slipping off the hose clamp when he puts the hose and clamp back on. That could have very easily created a spark.
