The magic fire that won't go out

[WTFH]

Feck me the fire is still going. Even a heavy bit of rain can't knock it out.
Think I've discovered the secret of free energy

Flames, or just glowing embers?

Are you sure they didn't use nuclear waste as the accelerant

Well its just a pile of garden waste.
If I have a poke underneath there's definitely small flames.
Still think it's diesel?

I'll need to put it out tonight but its right at the end of the garden, no hosepipe will reach that far.
Maybe I'll have to drag a water butt to it.

Yes, still diesel, it will have soaked into the wet wood and will wick through it for many hours. The dry material should have burned quite fiercely.


It will take a LOT of water to quench it if there is still a lot of things to burn.
I've seen a diesel fire of garden waste/branches burn for 3+ days.

FTFY

I've seen a diesel fire, at a house, started with garden waste/branches burn for 3+ days, by pure coincidence it was owned by someone I had never liked very much

I thought it was practically impossible to set fire to diesel at normal atmospheric pressure and any reasonable temperature

I mean a diesel puddle won't ignite if you simply drop a lighted match on it.

Suity's new fire lighter can even set water on fire.
