I'm going to guess he did what a lot of people do which is add propellant (like gas or lighter fluid) when the fire was already burning. This causes the fire to go up the fluid into the cab and explode in your face. It's actually a pretty basic thing not to do, and imo is common sense, but it happens a lot.

That was my guess. More than one person has been burned throwing gasoline on a fire. Bad idea.
