I just answered an email about this and thought I would include "Pele's 13 Steps to Fire Eating for Beginners" that I put in the email *giggle*.
So, to sum it all up.....
1. Soak and shake off torch
2. Light and let burn a couple of seconds to make sure all the excess is off
3. Check wind
4. Raise torch to 70-80 degree angle above face
5. Check wind
6. Take a deep breath
7. Get a load of spit in the mouth, lick lips
8. Open as wide as possible
9. Check wind
10. Slowly line up your torch and begin it's descent into your mouth, if you feel the need gently exhale (genlty so as not to blow out the torch...though optimally you don't exhale at all during this)
*remember if anything goes wrong, blow it out, you can relight later
11. Put torch into mouth so that the head is behind your teeth
12. Close lips around torch to smother
13. Remove torch, breathe and smile, you just did it!
Another important note, and a disclaimer....
***Don't inhale when the fire is in your mouth, not even through your nose. It will result in crispy nostrils, sinuses and possibly lungs.***
I know I have mentioned that I do some inhaling tricks with the fire, and I think some of you have seen it (NYC, Nomad, Peregrine???). It is not safe. It is very stupid. I admit it. I have also been doing this awhile. Just don't try it....
And if you do try it, or fire eating in general, I am by no means the master/mistress, nor am I the end all beat all expert. I will not be responsible for any injuries. I am merely supplying suggestions to help you not get burned!
That being said...Everyone light their torches!
Hope this helps

well, with the 'what is hot' question, it is that if i put it towards my mouth when going to take in vapour, i am told not to breathe out, well, if i dont, of course it is just like cooking my lips, not the torch metal but the flames off it, before they even get into my mouth!
any ideas people? thanks, daz
