Driver's naked flame heater hack probably not passing the roadworthy inspection

Dannielle Maguire

While we're leaving sweaty thigh patches on any seat we're in for more than one minute, it's hard to imagine the world being cold again.

But apparently, cold still exists.

And there's a place in the US so cold that someone would use a tank of propane gas and an open flame to keep warm in their car.

Yeah.

The heater obviously isn't working, so old mate had to get creative.

This is some real Bush Mechanics kind of caper – it's an out of the box solution to the problem, but wouldn't exactly pass a roadworthy test.

This car owner's cluey hack to keep warm may be effective, but it could also be a little too effective.

And by "too effective" we mean "cause the car to blow up like it's in Lethal Weapon".

Because using a bloody improvised flame thrower to heat your car is not the safest way to warm up.

But then again, wearing two pairs of pants at once can be pretty uncomfortable so maybe risking your life for a bit of warmth isn't that extreme.
