I have always preached shop safety and usually practiced it. I always wear gloves when using the torch. Well a couple days ago I was welding on my trailer fenders with the torch. I couldn't find the striker so I was using a bic. I had my glove off for some reason and relit the torch with out the glove. Normally not a big problem but this time the torch had popped and went out so the oxygen was still on too. It lit adjusted to a nuetral flame and immediatly blowed a quarter sized area of my hide off my forfinger. Stupid. Don't try this at home boys and girls.
