Bungling gardener tries to kill cockroaches by setting fire to their nest – but blows up his lawn instead

Post by FlyingPenguin »

The man was reportedly doing his best to rid his backyard and garden of roaches at the behest of his wife. Fed up with the tiny critters, 48-year-old Cesar Schmitz dumped an unspecified amount of gasoline in a hole he believed to be the source of the infestation. His first few match tosses didn’t hit the mark, but eventually, Schmitz connects and the rapid expansion of gas underground produces a seriously impressive explosion.

No, they are not dead yet until you bring out the flame thrower to finish it.
