Poor birdie. I wish I could get my hands on that clown. He is the one who should be fired: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/01/10......769.html

In my opinion, fire tricks and kids are wrong in the first place but how much fuel did he have in the pan. When he first lit it, there were flames all over the place. The bird had to be covered in fuel as well. He couldn't even put the flames out in the tray after the "production". He obviously doesn't know what he's doing so animals and fire shouldn't be in his act.
This really upsets me.

Talking about amateurs not knowing what they are doing. One year at the Abbott's Get-Together contest came out on stage and produced doves. The strange thing is he had all his dove pockets on the outside of his coat. Guess he did not understand the illustrations or something. He was the talk of the convention.

He was presenting his new illusion: 'Flight Of The Poenix'
When that didn't work out they all sat down and had a barbecue... What an amateur.... |

Let's not insult all the amateurs out there. Even most amateurs would have more sense. Looks like he never rehearsed the effect. I'm surprised he didn't set himself on fire with all those flames.

That was horrible! I cannot understand how anyone could let that happen.

I was horrified when this video popped up on Facebook. However, I would not jump all over 'fire tricks' in itself. As with guns, its not the gun its the idiot who misuses it. Fire tricks must be approached with an enormous amount of care and rehearsal. Obviously the idiot in this video did neither.
The first 15 seconds of this video reveals what a caring professional can do with a fire trick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2t0IrkIQS_I
