BERLIN - A German man in the northeastern town of Gross Godems was being treated for serious burns Monday after accidentally setting his apartment ablaze when he mistook a bottle of gasoline for liquor, police said.
The 56-year-old apparently grabbed the wrong bottle and took a swig from the gasoline flask, then spat it out when he realized his mistake.
The gas hit a lit cigarette, sparking the fire
Hahaha this is kinda sad but it was after all his own fault.What do you think?
ok. for one why is there gasoline in a bottle inside his house? and for two why is he smoking? who smokes? its soooo bad for you and he should consider quitting. gosh smoking is beat.

how the heck do you mistake a bottle of gasoline for liquor! why would the two even be near each other! wow he must have already been drinking before he attempted to drink the gasoline.
ya the guy needs to get a clue. how does a liqour bottle look even remotley close to a gasoline bottle. maybe he already drank all the liquor...that would explain it. word john. smoking kills.
he was obviously already gone if he couldnt even figure out which was the liquor bottle. plus, how do you punish someone for this? can you? the only person he hurt was himself but STILL!
