Is that the thing with the rodents?
If so, I remember a story from the early 90’s about two guys in San Francisco who “played” with their pet gerbil.
Long story short, the gerbil got scared, one guy had his nose broken and eyebrows singed when he lit a match causing the gerbil to be shot out like a flaming cannonball. The other guy got second and third degree burns, and the gerbil didn’t make it.

No, it's a lot more disgusting and only involves humans.
Your mention of Joe Cartoon takes me back to a more innocent (sort of) time of the Internet. Hoo-hoo washing and electric light sockets and so forth. Laughed my ass off multiple times watching those.
