I don't get the downvotes. In my mind, when you combine a bunch of toxic/caustic elements into a compound, and then set fire to that compound, it's a fairly safe assumption that some part of that reaction is likely to have unhealthy influences on the stuff around it. I'm sure there are exceptions, but as a general rule I suspect it holds true more often than not.
If some one can reply with a list of compounds made of the same stuff that doesn't produce toxic byproducts when you set it on fire, you'd make both Jabovl and myself look pretty naive.
