And here we have the idiot of the year:
In the one case Blitz lost, in 2010, a Utah jury awarded more than $4 million to the father of a 2-year-old girl killed when a Blitz can exploded after the father, David Calder, tried to start a fire in a wood-burning stove in his trailer home by pouring gasoline on the flame.
Just how stupid do you have to be to even try something like this? I wouldn't charge this idiot with manslaughter but I would sure think long and hard about it if I was a prosecutor.
on another forum there was a link to news article about this lawsuit.. In that article the guy admitted he was stupid for pouring the gas on the fire.. Also the can had the classic 'do not use near open flame' warnings printed into the can - Blitz still lost
In my opinion - the blitz carb compliant spouts (pull tab, push down on lever) works way better than the twist spout and pull back on spout systems..
