Fire terrifies me. Not good living in Australia with our bushfire threat.

hahahah yes!! !
i totally dig when you throw something into it...it has that 'explosion' effect...that is soooo cool. and the crackling sound is awesome! as for candles...we have a lot in my house, and I like blowing them out for the birthday cake smell...

my family used to ask me to burn the sticks and leaves and wooden junk in our garden because I was so good at it. I would carefully prepare the junk and layer it in a metal bin, then make a make-shift fuse out of kitchen paper and light it. I would then spend hours with a piece of wood fanning the flames, and not just fanning it, I would provide it with enough oxygen to start the roaring effect, till it was hot enough to melt the tin on the outer layer of the bin. Buy the time I was done, nothing that went in would come out in tact. I really enjoyed doing that. I would always strive to make the fire burn more intensely.

I went camping last week and at camp there was a censtant bonfire going and yes I found moments where I was staring at the fire.

i may sound like an arsonist when i say this but i like to watch thing burn

I like it when you throw things in that make the flames change color. :D

I loooovvveee fire, candles, watching it--I don't like using matches or lighters though, I feel like I'm going to burn my hand off or something! I use those long flame starter things though.

I don't like little fires as much as bonfires.

I like camp fires and bonfires. Not for the fire really, more for the camaraderie. Building the fire up as a group then sitting or standing around it telling stories, roasting marshmallows, etc. We used to build bonfires in england to burn the yard rubbish, and we'd go camping in Tennessee with our cousins. Those were fun times.

I'm not a pyromaniac or a lover of fire, it's pretty to look at for a bit, but I don't light candles to stare at the flame or start fires to enjoy the fire itself.

I've always felt awkward in campfire situations :S I just watch the flames.

One of the numerous times I got to burning things in my dad's garden shed and I decided to see how an elastic band burns, it was amazing to watch the little balls of flame fall to the floor. Fortunatly I never did burn that shed to the ground, but looking back I think I was just lucky.

I like it better than T.V. sometimes. :D

I enjoy candles, and I'm a fair hand at making fires. I always light fires when I can, especially if it's going to be for something, like for burning something specific, for roating marshmallows, or to have something bright and warm for when it gets dark.

A friend of mine likes to call himself a pyro, but he never actually does stuff with fire like myself or friend number two. Number two likes to use flammable liquids, but they're so ineffective. I'm the the fire that burns higher when it comes to making flames.

I enjoy building and watching fires. I regularly burn the old fallen branches from my yard. We had a tree get blown apart from lightning once. That made a nice fire. It is kind of hypnotizing to watch a flame, similar to watching water flow.

I like starting the fire with rudimentary or unusual methods like a magnifying glass, flint and steel, 9 volt battery and steel wool. I have not made a bow and stick started yet. I think I will do that this summer.

I hate fires. I always have that fear that everything's going to burn down and there will be no escape. I've always had those thoughts.
