Stupid is the force

Who would have guessed that making lightsabres out of flourescent tubes and petrol would end in disaster? About 99.99% of the world I imagine. But not these two Einsteins...

Two hurt in mock lightsabre duel

Two Star Wars fans are in a critical condition in hospital after apparently trying to make lightsabres by filling fluorescent light tubes with petrol. A man, aged 20, and a girl of 17 are believed to have been filming a mock duel when they poured fuel into two glass tubes and lit it. The pair were rushed to hospital after one of the devices exploded in woodland at Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire.
