    Does oxygen explode? Surely pure oxygen would just cause much more rapid burning of the cigarette/lighter.

    Gasping for a fag

    Haven't heard of one of these for years now:

    Smoker fighting for her life after lighting cigarette while wearing oxygen mask in Heywood, Greater Manchester | Metro News

    To do a proper job you really need an oxygen tent.

    Then the whole lot can go up.
