This is a link post Follow up vid to that magician being set on fire NSFW
Sorry it's pretty harsh viewing if real, I'm just trying to work out why it hasn't been in the news. Still skeptical that it's a publicity stunt.

This is a normal post It's a magic trick gone wrong, not an assault
maybe the fluid reacted badly with his hair gel or makeup instead of burning off harmlessly.

I've not much experience of foreign tv production, but why was some of it being filmed on camcorders?

Seems a bit iffy to me. They play patty head to try and put the flames out/add more petrol...then camera cuts away, in this day and age surely you'd keep the camera on the burning man for shits and giggles.
He also still has his hair and no melty face, Phantom of the Opera going on.

This is a normal post The twitter account of the magician assaulted (wayne Houchin) suggests it wasn't faked

It looks too rehearsed to me. All a bit Derren Brown.

This is a normal post Derren Brown's stage shows are fucking baffling
His long-winded shit-house TV hoaxes are a load of dog-eggs though.

This is a normal post Looks to me like the presenter panics and tries to put the flames out with his hands
What's all this shit about him being attacked? As far as I can see the guy's trying to help.

This is a normal post Can't shake the feeling there's something hokey about this whole thing.

This is a normal post I'm with you guys.
How did he ignite the flame?
Why didn't his hands set on fire?
Why didn't it burn his hair off?
How did they put it out?

This is a normal post Exactly! If I was there I'd slap him to the ground and then piss all over his head.
And then carry on and on and on, laughing at his horrified screams/gurgles.
