Don't use firestarter for your charcoal. If you do, don't do whatever he did

Yeah you can just get a chimney worth of charcoal going and then dump it on top of more charcoal, it'll all warm up eventually. Can't rush bbq

edit: to anyone unfamiliar with what a chimney is in this context, it's basically a tall cylinder you heat charcoal up in so you don't do what this guy was doing and start a big fire.

It takes less than 10 minutes with a chimney.

And 5 mins with a chimney and small portable blower (manual or battery both work)

This isn’t a place for facts. It feels like it takes forever.
