The three phrases you may hear before a redneck dies:
"Hey, watch this!"
"Hold muh beer."
"Bet you can't..."

Maybe related to the guy from the 1950s. He was driving a tank truck of gasoline through a neighborhood in Houston when it caught fire. He ran several blocks to a service station to call his boss in Louisiana to find out what to do. People whose homes were getting burned called the fire department.

But honestly, is this something you really need to be told not to do?
Yes. During my high school years, a guy who owned a small repair/performance shop burned himself pretty good by welding on a gas tank. When he was well enough for an interview, he couldn’t understand what happened because “he made sure he emptied the tank first.” Then a few years later, some kids blew themselves up by using a light to try to see what was inside an oil storage tank out in one of the local oil fields.

Hyuck! Mickey told not to use a match to check it, so (hyuck!) I used my lighter instead!

Spencer Iowa about 25 years ago two young men bought a closed gas station. They proceeded to clean the floor up using - what else but gasoline. The compressor started and all that was left was the slab.
