Sup, you beautiful bastards! Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco show. Buckle up, make sure you're subscribed because I'm going to be splitting $10,000 across 10 lucky subscribers this month, and let's just jump into it.

0:10.4

The first thing that we're going to talk about today is this dumb motherfucker out of Springville, Utah.

0:14.1

So there was this absolutely massive wildfire that ignited somehow out of nowhere yesterday.

0:18.6

With those flames ultimately consuming around 60 acres before

0:21.1

luckily being doused by a rainstorm. And as far as what actually caused the fire, it turns out

0:25.2

it was spiders. Kind of. Like it was spiders in the same way that if I was in a car and I saw a snake

0:30.6

and I wanted to run over the snake and instead I like slammed into a hole, it was the snake that

0:35.0

crashed the car. Because late in the afternoon when firefighters arrived on the scene, they encountered a man with his dog who immediately confessed to accidentally starting the fire.

0:42.3

Because apparently this all happened because he tried to kill a spider with a lighter.

0:45.3

But instead, he caught a bush on fire which led to all of this.

0:48.3

So now he's been arrested on fire-related charges, though it doesn't appear like that was the only thing he was blazing. With police also reportedly finding marijuana and drug paraphernalia in his backpack, which they're charging him for as well.

0:58.0

And as far as what the authorities have to say, regarding trying to set a spider on fire, they said, quote,

1:04.0

Please don't do that.

1:05.0

And it hurts my brain that the police even need to say that, but it turns out, like, this isn't like the only time this has ever happened. Arguably the other time the guy was unequivocally dumber, because that guy tried to use a ladder

1:14.2

to burn a spider while the spider was sitting on his gas tank at the gas station. Although, at least

1:19.6

that moment gave us the clip of employees mocking the guy. I don't like spiders, huh? You know,

1:23.6

you know, if they say about spiders, let me get my lighter here and burn that spider off.

1:27.8

Okay.

1:29.4

Oh, geez, that's hot.

1:30.1

Oh, boy.

1:31.9

But ultimately, with this story, I guess two things.

1:33.8

One, please don't do this.
