While boxing pretends to be a gentleman’s game, at the end of the day, it’s just two people hitting each other. It’s incredibly fun to watch and even participate in, but there’s a solid reason why it’s considered to be one of the country’s most dangerous sports.

That said, the danger usually comes from getting punched — not from being set on fire.



In what is labeled as a “fraternity boxing match” (college is really important, kids), two dudes can be seen duking it out. One of them, who is wearing a tiger costume, gets the better of the other one, securing a knockout.


Undeterred, this loser decides to set the man’s costume on fire. While the burn is slow, it eventually envelopes his whole body, causing him to remove the costume in a half-freakout. When he does, he stands proudly and screams, blissfully unaware of all the burns he’ll be covered in in the morning.


We don’t know if OP took the video, but in a comment, he claims that the dude was later brought to the hospital. I think we can all agree that’s probably for the best — here’s hoping he recovers in time for a rematch!
