I always thought that some fans of these films were a bit weird , now this proves it :-
It’s a pity that they had to find out the hard way that you don’t mess around with petrol.
I find it interesting that the distinction between their ages and genders is made as “[a] 17-year-old girl and a 20-year-old man,” when, in fact, they’re both of-legal-age dumbasses.
Great closing line in that article:
Is it too spoilerish to hint that that one ended in the burn ward, too?
*A police spokeswoman said the pair were taken to West Herts Hospital *
That just seems like a great name for a hospital. 
Anytime I’ve seen an article about a people in their late teens, early twenties, anyone over 18 is listed as “woman/man,” under that is “boy/girl.” Guess it depends on where you’re from.

You know what’s worse than showing up in a hospital as a result of your own stupidity? Showing up in a hospital as a result of your own stupidity and wearing a geeky costume! 
The Force is not with them…
Yes, but the Farce is certainly with them.
I’m thinking these two will be definite “Darwin Awards Honorable Mention” candidates.
Why do I find that so funny? Bad Ponder, Bad!!!
Hee hee hee hee
I wonder if the tape will show one of the “actors” screaming, as the other one burns, “I loved you like a brother!”
Maybe this was their plan?
If their intelligence was a result of inbreading, then he very well could have.
The stupid… it hurts… whimper
(The people wielding the lightsabers in the article. Not any of you guys. snogs)
