Just because there is someone with a fire extinguisher doesn't mean that they know how to use it!!!...

I guess he was lucky that it didn't let go further down the track...

That really sucks. Sorry to hear. If that camera man had said that to me after that happened he would've had a tough time sharing that video considering his buddy would have to help him him remove the camera from his a$$.
