When you're jumpstarting a car, you really have to know what you're doing. There can be a fire so easily if you do it wrong. If you don't know how, look it up online! If you ask a friend to help, you better trust that they know what they're doing! Otherwise, you might end up like this person in Boston.

According to Boston25News, "An attempt by two residents to jump start a car led to both vehicles catching fire, officials say. The fires happened around 10:30 a.m. on Edgewater Drive East, in Falmouth, according to the fire Department. Two people were attempting to jump start a vehicle. One of the cars caught fire and then the fire spread to the second vehicle, officials say. Photos posted by the fire department show both vehicles with heavy damage. Because both vehicles were so close to a house, the fire was upgraded to a structure fire, according to the fire department. Firefighters were able to quickly put out both car fires. No one was injured. The cause of the fire remains under investigation."

Dave and Chuck have a great reenactment of how this might have gone down. And, because we are trying to no longer use copywritten music or sound effects, Chuck comes up with his own sparks and fire sounds.

You can't just trust anyone. It's another example for you!

Hope you have a good New Years Eve!
