I mean aren't all flags held on by rope? And rope can be lit on fire... 🤷♂️
It doesn't burn anywhere near as well as you'd hope, unless you soak it in oil, or similar, first sadly, and manmade fibres are even less likely to carry the flame than natual ones.
Aw :(
Why does this rope smell like it's been soaked in kerosene?
Uhhh... it helps lubricate the pulley to make it easier to raise and lower the flag. Yeah, that's it, definitely nothing to do with this ligher. Nothing at all.
Nylon rope mostly just kind of melts a little bit of exposed to flames, but doesn't want to catch.
