Hapless Texas firebomber sets self on fire

If you're planning on firebombing a car, then watch this video for tips on how not to do it

The video shows a shadowy figure approaching a vehicle parked outside a housing complex.

He then lights a Molotov cocktail before setting it down as he attempts to smash the car window.

After eventually smashing the glass he steps on the lit bomb as he clears the broken glass from the window, causing his foot to catch fire.

The startled man then runs off with his foot on fire as the flames spread to the car.

The fire caused serious damage to the Cadillac. The car owner, a local businessman, told local news stations that he knows exactly who is behind the attack, calling the alleged perp the 'Bin Laden of the local Gypsy community'.

Houston police and fire department officers are working jointly on the investigation.
