Video: This week’s Genius Award goes to… the bloke who used a match to look in his petrol tank

He deserves a standing ovation...

He deserves a standing ovation…

We’re not really sure what possessed this bloke to use a match to look into his petrol tank – you know, the part of the car where you keep the highly flammable liquid? But he did and he almost set his car alight in the process…

The man stands beside his car in shock of what just happened and waits for the petrol attendant to quench the flames, but the poor attendant obviously wasn’t used to using the extinguisher as he makes a balls of putting out the fire.

All this video needs is a bit of Benny Hill music thrown over it.
