[quote]An Australian defence force member has suffered horrific burns in a portaloo explosion apparently sparked by a cigarette.
The man suffered third-degree burns to his head, face, arms, chest and airways in the incident at the Rockhampton airport on Monday morning, the Department of Community Safety said.
"There was some sort of explosion in a portaloo. It's believed the man was lighting a cigarette at the time," a spokeswoman said.
"He was taken to the Rockhampton hospital in a serious condition."
The defence department said a member of the Australian Defence Force was injured at the Rockhampton airport on Monday morning.
Talisman Sabre, a joint US-Australia military exercise, is currently being held in the Rockhampton area and is using the airport.
Talisman Sabre officials will hold a press conference about the incident on Monday afternoon.
"Our first priority is the wellbeing of the ADF member and making sure he's receiving the best medical care available," the defence spokesman told AAP.
He said the man's family had been notified, and police and fire authorities were investigating the incident.[/quote]

I guess you could say he was thinking with portaloos.
Over here we call them Port a potties
I'm sorry, but you can't put 'Portaloo' and 'Seriously' in the same sentence.

This isn't funny, but the word itself doesn't exactly make you sad.
Methane explosion, I'm guessing?
Didn't mythbusters do an episode on what it took for methane to fill a portapotie to the point of explosion?

Fuck ninjas in the ass
