He hit the can with a sledgehammer. The can blew up and was ignited by the spark from the hammer hitting(I'm assuming). The oil was spread around.

I dont know what video you watched. Its clearly a stick and the can is already burning some on the ground prior to getting hit. No sparks.

Just the flame spread and the pressurized oil blew.



I think he's wondering how they got the can to sit there smoldering a little before they hit it.

Actually... its hard to see... but it might be a garden hoe to puncture the can too. But it was burning before hand for sure and its too light to be a sledgehammer... the way the lil skinny dood is swinging it around.

yea the can was def on fire ... wd 40 is not that volative without some sort of flame. i would know, its one of my favorite things to play with and a lighter.

and most def not a sledgehammer , a stick or a hoe like canada said.

i've smashed cans of wd-40 before and it did nothing but spray lubricant everywhere. this video didnt even elicity a chuckle out of me
