    He threw a live little person on a fire? He deserved his house burnt down - what kind of sadistic cruel mind could burn an animal live? I don't find this funny - other than that ******* got fried for being cruel beyond reason.

        The funny part was the mouse getting revenge before it died

    This guy completely deserved what happened to him. What he did to that poor mouse should be classed as animal cruelty. I'm glad the mouse got some revenge at least

    I can't laugh at house fires, some friends just got burned out of their home. Due to help, they and their pets all survived, but the house is gone along with their Christmas presents.

    If I was his insurance company I'd be investing that claim. Hair goes up in a pretty quick poof. I would presume the fire would have been a safe distance from the house. I find it hard to believe the mouse's hair would still be burning by the time it got there. I don't buy it.

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

      f I were an investigator, a fire near the home is a mark against him. That he did this, is another mark. That he WOULD do this is ANOTHER mark. BESIDES, a leaf fire can EASILY cause leaves to fly up and possibly land on the roof, and THAT could start a fire.

      An insurance agency may stop paying based on THAT. Burning leaves is against the law in many areas and, if it were THERE, he wouldn't get reimbursed.

      You are right about the hair. Hair tends to burn quickly, and self extinguish. Mice have a little fur, so that should be pretty quick.
