Fantastic job explaining everything. I’m a student makeup artist who does a lot of work with practical effects. It’s super important that I learn about burn patterns so that my makeup and props can be realistic. This has helped me so much!

Thanks for the fantastic comment. Most of what I'm talking about is property burning patterns. Are you talking about makup simulating flesh burning patterns? If so, how did this video help you know what that looks like? I'd love to know more.

Darren Williams thanks for replying! I’m currently working on a project for fire department training. I’ll be having models with wounds so that they can practice bandaging people up, and props so that we can demonstrate burn patterns on walls, floors, etc. This video is really helping me a lot with creating more realistic props!

The Molotov Cocktail is named after Vyacheslav Molotov, a member of Joseph Stalin's politburo. During the Finnish- Soviet war, the Finns named their petrol bombs after Molotov. The Soviets said that they were dropping food to the Finns when they were, in fact, dropping incendiary cluster bombs. The Finns named the clusters "Molotov Bread Baskets." The Finns said that the Molotov cocktail was intended as a drink to go with the "food" that the Soviets were delivering to them. The Molotov cocktail was used by the Fins in an antitank role.

Interesting. I often feel that I would have liked to have been an arson investigator. Even as a kid whenever I saw or heard about a building fire I was always curious as to what caused it to happen.

In January 95 I lost everything in apt fire. I got there as the fire company in a podunk town in Minnesota were finishing up. They asked me if I left anything on or plugged in I panicked and said an electric blanket. My dad had a retired fire chief from a city look at it he said right away it was arson and it started at my bedroom doorway that led to the hallway and that someone light something and stuck it under the door. To this day 26 years later its still being tentatively blamed on the electric blanket. Ps I recalled later that I made sure to unplug the blanket because I had a bad feeling can't explain why
