AJ Pritchard's girlfriend Abbie Quinnen has suffered third-degree burns after a wine bottle exploded and set fire to her hair and clothing.
The professional dancer, 23, was filming a video with her Strictly star beau, 26, when the accident happened on January 19 and was driven to Ealing Hospital in London by his brother Curtis, reports The Sun On Sunday.
Since the awful incident, Abbie has needed three skin grafts and made 20 hospital visits with AJ caring for her as she recovers at home inbetween appointments.

Came with sandpaper toremove the sharp edges so one could make a drinking glass.

Art meets science meets medicine.
Agree. That she was being careless. But in response to my method, I have done it often enough as I make mosaics. I work with glass and have a bit of practice. For my projects, I normally cut containers in 1/2 vertically tho.
They do have special bottle cutters just for this purpose. I just got a Taurus 3 ring saw. Perhaps I’ll move it to hand held mode andTry it out. It cuts glass like butter, and multidirectional. . Wasn’t cheap. But, It’s pretty amazing.
No, truly how many people now a days die or are mangled for their phone?
I feel sorry for this girl, whoever she is. And I never heard of her boyfriend either.

I’m just here for the kaboom

She’s hot!
Aren’t most HOA’s run by Nazis?
I have no idea who these idiots are, but I can bet the male will be ‘moving on’ when he gets a look after the bandages come off...
The story says the bottle “blew up.” They were clearly not using the method you have seen demonstrated. I had the same thought that you expressed, that they left the container of lighter fluid nearby and open. This happens every summer in backyard grill misadventures by people who were never taught basic safe handling of volatile and flammable liquids. Hair on fire is painful (I presume, without personal experience) but manageable. Her whole upper body being engulfed by flames after a bottle blew up would take some extra work.
Looks like it’s time for AJ to look for a new arm charm, one without scar tissue.
I had an incident after I go out of the USN and was home, and my brother had a big party at my parents house where he had set up Tiki torches around the gunite in-ground pool.
I saw one of the torches was right next to the pool, and realized if someone had knocked it over, it could have ended up in the pool.
I pulled the torch out of the ground, and as it still burned, walked a few feet away to push the supporting pole into the dirt. As I pushed it in, the flimsy thin metal pole collapsed and bent in half (didn't see that coming) and the torch dropped to my shoulder, and the liquid spilled down my shirtless neck and back...on fire.
I batted at it frantically with my hands for probably less than a second, and when I saw the flames only get bigger, without hesitation I launched myself in the pool. Amazingly, I only got some reddened skin and burnt hair, but no blisters.
And long hair is a hazard all its own. I dated a gal who had part of her scalp ripped off and a concussion to boot when she was working at a lathe in her shop in High School, and her hair clip fell off.
Her hair fell on the spinning wood and pulled her head down into it.
Was this a how to video they were recording?
If so that it sounds as dangerous as a tide pod challenge on YouTube it’s ban such things. Imagine this happening to just observers of the video trying it at home with no name or celebrity the bank on.
I hope her doctors are aware of Avita’s Recell
by far the BEST treatment for burns
