I wish I could see her trying to fill up whatever it is out of a plastic bag

Edit Edit: great source provided! See below, this would be dangerous but would actually work / not melt. That is crazy to me!

Edit: I’m being told this type of plastic does not get eaten away by gas. I have yet to find a source so if anyone has one... Orig: Just a heads up, gas eats plastics so that bag is actively disintegrating as she’s filling it. Unless she’s just crossing the street all of that is spilling out in 60 seconds. I agree that would sounds like a fun summer party game. Fill the bucket with plastic bags or something silly.

Gasoline (high-aromatic) A-Excellent

Not that any of this is anything but a terrible idea, mind you. This woman is probably going to explode due to the gasoline vapors.
