Most likely troll. People who know, know that gasoline does not
explode. Also that you need a higher temperature than a match to get
it to burn at all.

Wrong. As usual. Liquid gasoline burns; gasoline vapor mixed with air
explodes. If the latter weren't true, then internal combustion engines
couldn't use gasoline.

Wrong. As usual. A match flame is surprisingly hot, certainly higher
than the temperature at which paper burns, which as we all know is 451F.
Matches don't give off much heat since they're so small, but gasoline is
highly flammable in the presence of oxygen. Please don't try to confirm
this on your own.

Darn, I wish all products were manufactured to be
as dangerous and deadly as possible. That way all
the stupid animals in the heard would succumb to
natural selection, hopefully before they can breed.

even an air/fuel mixture of gasoline does NOT explode. It burns
rapidly. This is the reason the internal combustion engines runs and
does not explode. you are wrong.
