Video shared on Facebook shows the moment a woman torched a vehicle, but more importantly caught the moment it didn't go as planned.

The thing about gasoline, is that it has a low flash point, and a high vapor density. So basically, the fumes spread quickly, and then it doesn't take much to spark it, causing it to blow fast.

Why this woman thought using a candle lighter to get this thing burning wasn't too good of an idea either.

The whole thing is just embarrassing, but I suppose she did achieve what she had set out to accomplish.
