Pulling people out of the ditc...

A British hairdresser died after her cigarette ignited a leaking bottle of hydrogen peroxide bleach which then blew up in her car as she drove along a quiet country lane, the Bournemouth Echo reported Thursday.

Jennie Mitchell's grieving father Bob urged hairdressers to show extreme caution when carrying the hydrogen peroxide, a powerful bleach used to lighten hair when mixed with ammonia.

"The hydrogen peroxide had ventilated in the car. She opened the window, which introduced oxygen," he said.

"Jennie was a smoker and it’s likely that she lit or had a lit a cigarette.

“Until the accident, nobody knew this could happen. We keep saying, you couldn’t have written this in a script.”

"We want to warn people how volatile hydrogen peroxide is, even if it is kept in the boot of a car. Jennie’s friends have all said they carry it," added her mother Pauline Mitchell.

An inquest into the 19-year-old's death was opened in Dorset, southern England on Tuesday and is expected to resume in three months.

the author of this thread has nothing to worry about, his lack of hair results in never needing a bottle of peroxide...

We really are. I scowl at people who smoke on the sidewalk and I walk through their smoke.

Thanks, BB.

It just seems obvious to me that smoking is a greater health hazard than transporting hydrogen peroxide (or driving on country lanes laugh).

You could either a) stop bathing in turpentine or b) quit smoking.

Choose wisely, grasshopper.

gasoline requires an open flame to ignite the fumes, a cigarette that is already lit and thrown into gasoline is extinguished (7th grade science project 1st place winner, thank you very much)
