Talk about killing two birds with one stone. 

One man decided to set himself on fire before doing the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, which can only mean he was also trying to do the fire challenge...right? No? Okay, we give up.

The video, which has since been taken down, features the guy waving a Confederate flag and wearing an American flag vest—because Murica—as he drinks some alcohol and promptly sets his head on fire. He figured the water would extinguish the flames, but when that failed, his friend stepped in and advised him to "stop, drop, and roll," which helped put out the fire. 

This snafu could've been avoided if he had just listened to our advice: Avoid the challenge and donate!
