I think Shermer was pretty sure of himself after he saw the other going over the fire, and thought, I can do it also if the others can... But in the other hand... The brother of my girlfriend tried this at home... Well..., he got in hospital cause of that... I think Shermer is a bit wrong here, but on the other side, it’s all in all a bit weird storry.

This is a surface area of flesh. I have stepped on hot coals by accident, and burned the crap out of myself.
