In a fit of rage it took a few seconds and the smell of burning flesh before he realised he was holding the hot end while he waved it at me.
Made him squeal a bit :wtf:
When I lived in London I had some muppet threaten me with a huge knife (like Crocodile Dundee size). I noticed he wasn't holding it correctly & grabbed it out of his hand. So now the situation was reversed & I had the big knife. What does he do? The dumbass grabbed it by the blade so the sharp edge was between his thumb & pointy finger. He bled like a stuck pig & damn near lost his thumb when I simply pulled the knife out of his grip. He had a change of heart of that point & went of his way.

That was pretty much the pillocks reaction when he realized what he'd done...

Today I discovered my fuel tank holds 16.58 litres from empty.

Don't ask me how I found out :(

It involved a strange misfire, and a 1 Km push :(
