    Hi Billy. I'm a burn survivor. I had 40 % of my body burned with second - and third-degree burns. I went through 30 plus operations in 6 years. My plastic surgeon was Peter Neligan, and he is in Seattle now but was in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I can understand everything you are going through. It will get better, but you have a rough road in the beginning. The biggest thing is to keep up with moisturizer. I use Galaxo Base cream. It's the best for burns. It's not greasy once it absorbs in your skin. You are very lucky. All the best.

    Billy please don't beat yourself up. We all make mistakes. I made the mistake of welding on a fuel tank 13 years ago and didn't have my helmet on because I was just tack welding a fuel shutoff value in and it blew up on me. I even washed it out with Tide and hot water. But I ended up losing my eye sight. I was given less than a 5% chance of seeing again but I was lucky and regained my sight a year and half later. But man when it happened my son was 7 years old and my 2 daughters were 9 and 10 at the time. But man I just wanted to die because I couldn't play catch with my son and teach him how to play ball or all the things you look forward to do with your children. But they are what kept me going. And man it shows how proud you are being a dad. So please always take every safety precaution you can and be safe. At the end of the day you need to go home to your family. God bless you and the family.

Using an oxy/acetylene torch cutting out a hydraulic cylinder, I had hydraulic fluid ignite between two sections of casing. The fireball went right in front of my face, up the hoistway, catching dust bunnies and spider webs on fire. Working in confined spaces has it's hazards already. Add fire and it'll make even a seasoned journeyman's butt pucker. Get well soon, Billy 🙏💪🏻🇺🇸

    I am really sorry to hear about your mishap Billy. I am an old 64 geezer, and when we had to fix a leak on a steel tank; meaning welding on the tank, we used to run a large vacuum size hose from an exhaust pipe from a running car into the inlet and let it "Air Dry" out any remaining gases/ fumes after we emptied the tank. We never used water. Then let it sit over night before welding. But with new "Plastic Tanks' I'd do the same procedure. But try blowing out the fumes with a leaf blower over the inlet with all outlets open and let sit for a day in the sun to dry out. Again, so sorry to hear of your mishap. Just my own words of caution and tick this in your future memory to not let this happen again. Love watching all the channels your family has. :) Keep Strong and heal up Young Gun!!!!!!!!!!! :) We know your family is there for you, but your fans are there for you too. Love to ya'll

It always served me well. Thought I'd pass it along. I built a 4wd 85 S10 blazer with a 283 back before you could buy a kit-in-a-box. Did it with all off the shelf GM parts.

    I was working on a nitro RC engine and had drained the fuel into a cup, which I left on my work bench . I accidentally lit it with my soldering torch a while later, and without thinking I tried to blow out the flame... it flared up and burnt my face similar to yours, removing eyebrows, eyelashes, and some hair 😂.
    The eyelashes were the most uncomfortable, for me. You don't realize how important those little things are, how much they do blocking the sun , wind, and dust..
    It took a few weeks for my skin to feel normal and several months for eyebrows and eyelashes to grow back. The hair was the easiest part, so don't worry too much about your looks. It'll all grow back eventually.

      Actually tho when you get 2nd degree thru full thickness burns, the pain isn’t that bad till you get your daily scrubs cause the nerve endings have been damaged and are not sending pain signals to the brain as they typically would. It’s the bodies defensive way of protecting itself from the immense pain a burn can cause.
      My wife has been a Burn Nurse at several of our countries best burn units and the things she has seen and done will churn the stomachs of most of us here. It takes a special individual to be in the burn field!!

    Jr said I’m
    “Not that smart” young timer you need to take credit for the legacy you are building. Your “family” should be proud of the young man you have become. The brand you have built,struggles you have overcame. One day when your young family looks back and ponders what you have done for the racing community and youngsters coming in and up with this form
    Of racing. This takes talent from the entire team. You keep
    It real
    And keep everyone accountable. This at such a young age is rare today. You made it!!!! Don’t listen to the hey I would have done this I would have done that. This is a learning lesson and everyone that watches this will understand the dangers of drilling a tank. You
    May have saved someone a serious injury or death. Be proud of where you are and where you are going. The peddle never sits idle. Good to see you are in good spirits and doing better day by day.

      Probably the same reason I don't. My choice. And because we drove most of our lives in the sticks, in cars that didnt even have seatbelts, and like magic, we are still here. Amazing, I know.

    I appreciate the video man, when you work in the shop all the time you tend to forget just how dangerous things are. Simple things that you do from day to day can change your life forever. After watching this happen to you I will be thinking twice about everything that I usually wouldn’t even think about in the shop. I feel bad for ya brother, being down that long definitely sucks hope you heal up quickly and get back to doing the things you love.

    Don't take it too hard brother. So many times we do things like this and never a problem. But by you sharing it with your UA-cam FAMILY. Many will be saved from burns or worse now. So try to look on the bright side. Remember you're a legend that many follow. Hell I'm 60 and I follow you as much as I can with my busy schedule. 🙏 for a quick recovery.... 👍
