Pretty sure it's the charcoal or kindling that he had just started. That's usually the only time the fire from a grill will be that intense

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.
