[edit] Image removals

Removed the "Other photographs" section as images were not of fire eating Jcrs 13:16, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image replacement

I noticed that the previous image of the fire eater was removed, I'm guessing because of copyright violation? I'm adding a new one, and would like to note that the current two pictures (the cast iron torches and the guy eating in front of a ferris wheel) are both original photography by me, and are licensed appropriately in the wikimedia commons.

[edit] Extinguish

I have taken the extinguish "Put a Cigar/Cigarette out on tongue" as this is not a form of fire-eating it is merely pain endurance and does not follow any of the conventions of fire eating. (which involve putting the flame out without burning yourself by using physics and chemistry laws to to your advantage).

What about the quote on "tolerating pain"? I think that's misleading and a bit of an overstatement rather, as I've never burnt myself at all. 75.46.24.175 15:30, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
