Dude burns genitals while imitating "Jackass" stunt
Trying to duplicate a movie stunt landed a man in the hospital with burns to his hands and genitals and left a second man facing criminal charges.
Randell D. Peterson, 43, was charged Tuesday in Eau Claire County Court with felony counts of battery and first-degree reckless endangerment.
Police were called to Luther Hospital to meet with Jared W. Anderson, 20, who had serious burns to both his hands and genitals. Anderson said he didn’t want anyone to get in trouble because of what happened.
One of the characters in the movie lit his genitals on fire as a stunt. Anderson, who was drunk, wanted to duplicate the stunt. Peterson was willing to oblige.
Anderson pulled his pants down in Peterson’s kitchen. Peterson sprayed lighter fluid on Anderson’s genitals. After he was unable to start a fire, Peterson sprayed more lighter fluid on Anderson, and some of the fluid got on Anderson’s clothing. Peterson tried again and a fire started. Anderson’s genitals, hands and clothing all caught fire. Anderson ran into the bathroom, jumped in the bathtub and put the flames out.
Anderson’s burns were serious enough that skin was peeling off his hands. Two witnesses forced Anderson to go to the hospital. Anderson eventually was taken to the Regions Hospital Burn Unit in St. Paul with second-degree burns.
Peterson, if convicted, could face up to 10½ years in prison.
