This must be a new thing that started after I got married

It is called Light the bride on fire then strip and tackle her (http://break.com/index/bride-catches-fire.html)


Also, why are they playing "Wind of Change" at a wedding.

It's not a wedding, it's a quinceañera.

It's not a wedding it's a Quinceañera.

Edit: Dang it, you beat me! I had to look up how to spell "Quinceañera"

Oh, well then flaming girls are expected. That always happens just after the kitten juggler finishes.

That makes it funnier. As a right of passage you must be burned, stripped and beaten.

Just to let everyone know it is a quinceañera, not a wedding :)

oh man, that's another argument for natural fibers. Or does silk go up like that too?

Almost.

And to another poster, silk wouldn't go up like that. If silk (or another natural fiber) went up like that, it'd be from soaking up the dropped fuel, and then it'd be the fuel burning rather than the fibers. Actually, if you look at the whole thing, there are parts where the dress is smoldering while flames leap. The flames are from the dropped fuel while the smoldering is from the fibers melting and burning.

What ever happened to stop, drop and roll?

Funny thing is, in her situation, it might not have helped much!
