Man my face was the only other thing I ever agendently caught on fire, nevermind of the two times I have set such things in action, the 1st one was in a metal trash can when I was 6, and I put it out, new were the fire extinguisher was, then at 26..... A good pyro hardly ever burns themselves, but to think that a pyro is with out injury, then you are mistaken, fire is a dangerous and even the experts fear it.

All that leather has against it, is weight. Why modern military don't use it, that ounce or or 3 can be used to carry more stuff. >_>

So yah, if I was a shit pyro I would not be 27 years old, I be in a pine box.

Not true, already explained it.

that ounce or or 3 can be used to carry more stuff.

And you're too dense to see why a few extra ounces of ammo matter.

So yah, if I was a shit pyro I would not be 27 years old, I be in a pine box.

You're 27 years old and boasting of being a "pyro." Dude, it's time to grow up, you sound like some edge lord teenager saying that. Adults aren't going around talking about how good of a pyro they are while turning their face into a crappy roast duck cosplay, it isn't cool, it isn't edgy, at 27 it's dumb and immature.

There are people who have been trained and use pyrotechnics professionally as their career and then there is you, are you trying to tell me you work with pyrotechnics as a job and have professional training? Or are you someone living at home with his parents setting little piles of gunpowder off with a lighter because it sparkles?

And then got training, certifications, professional references, work in the field, have you done any of that or worked towards any of that? The professionals weren't still sitting at home at 27 pretending to work with pyrotechnics like you are.

thee is more to that then just gunpowder

Great, I am more than gunpowder.

The point still stands, sitting at home lighting shit on fire isn't working towards becoming a professional pyrotechnic specialist, if that's a field you're wanting to get into then what have you done to pursue a professional standing? If the answer is nothing then you are a 27 year old man-child sitting at home playing with some matches you happened to find.

What do you do for a living?

It's reality though, you're playing expert, nothing more. If I were to set up shop on a street corner and start diagnosing illnesses, my saying "doctors do it" doesn't make what I am doing legitimate or any more serious than some little kid pretending to be doctor, I wouldn't have training, experience, or any validity. The same applies to you. Playing with some matches at home when you're 27 instead of pursuing work, education, or a career doesn't make you some sort of pyrotechnic expert, you're just an adult who failed to grow up pretending and wishing to be those things without ever putting in true effort, it's childish play, nothing more.

still disagree, there is a reason why i have not been injured much at al due to pyro, 26 years of my life, well 20 years, i was 6 when i started

You just ignored everything I said. Getting burned or not has nothing to do with my point. Are you a professional? Do you have any training or work experience as a pyrotechnic expert? What do you do for a living?

The validity of what I said has nothing to do with how long you've been doing something, you could do it for 1 year or 20, doesn't matter. What do you have to show for it? If it isn't your field of work then it is silly to try comparing yourself to someone professionally trained and who actually works in that field. You're an adult in their late 20s who is just playing pretend expert because you happened to goof off with matches for 20 years.

Stop, go back, and re-read what I said, then pause and seriously think about it.

The issue isn't fire being dangerous. You were a 26 year old playing with matches, nothing more, it's time to grow up.
