So I was driven my bus and hit a bump to fast, a gas can jumped in the air and cracked, and started leaking. Got where I was goin, and took the gas can out, and wiped up the spilled gas. Went about my day.
Roughly 30mins later or so go back in the bus and figure I better open all the windows. Im assuming the fact that Im an asshole and think Im superman is what got me in trouble.. cuz I was still smoking. Im pretty sure I even thought to myself "maybe I shoudlnt be smoking in here".. naw.. then all of a sudden. I dunno if it was ashe, or the fact that it was 120 outside today.. but muther fucker started burning like crazy. Black smoke filled my bus. and I ran for the fire extinguisher that I keep up front. Put the gas fire out.. but the fire has spread to all my curtins (which are made of black velvet).. my extinguisher is empty. so I figure I only got a water hose. at this point I cant even go in the bus cuz its so hot, and you cant see or breath in there. I just start spraying water through the window like crazy at any orange I see. roughly 5mins later its out.. there is black smoke billowing out of my bus for a good 20mins, and the occasional flames jump back up. so I have to spray them out.
Eventually the smoke has cleared and I can get inside to open all the windows and assess the damage.
Amazingly nothing of importance burned. Just some blankets and my curtins, and the pipes holding the curtins up were melted into funny shapes. And one bench seat got torched and meltaed.The floor has a big black mark where the fire started, and there is powder and water everywhere.
Took me all day to clean it up, and scrub the celining to get the black off. You can tell there was a fire in there, but its nowhere near as bad.
It almost doesnt smell anymore.
crazy **** man.. I mean this was no small fire. It was a huge gasoline fire at the back of the bus. Blankets and curtins were burning like ******* crazy. you couldnt not see or breathe inside the bus. It was ******* hot, and I had just enough time to see the flames to spray them out. then get out before I blacked out from smoke and heat.
