There's a burns epidemic in the US at the moment as people put it to the test. And find it doesn't always work.

I love that it's the LA Times who reported it 🙂

"Check out these silly people who live in cold places..."

It's like the Evening Standard running a front page special on Scottish people being knocked out by throwing haggis at each other

Interesting that in the US they don't use 'scald' for this sort of thing.

""Threw a pot of boiling water in the air. Kids thought it was awesome," Jason DeRusha, a WCCO-TV anchor in Minneapolis, [b]tweeted[/b] to his [b]followers[/b] on Sunday. "Do it, people."

Why do people [i]follow[/i] a TV anchorman? Weird.
Why do people do what a TV anchorman tells them? Weird.
Americans...

Sorry, when I said "Americans" I meant Twitter users.
