    Nah, you could definitely make one. Ensure the petrol is completely aerosolized, so that it burns completely and quickly. Now it just needs to be able to burn oxygen out of a room faster than it can get in. Or it could use the burning petrol to generate coumpounds and co2 to suffocate the fire. Get yourself basically a petrol powered weedeater and replace the rope with some sort of heat dissipater. As it spin its shoots the heat elsewhere, somewhere safer.

      Those are some interesting and creative suggestions. Now, I’m no weapons engineer, but I believe there’s a term for aerosolized gasoline when deployed to put out a fire, and that term is “thermobaric bomb”.

      Never mind that though, it’ll totally work: Not only is a building that no longer exists not a building on fire, but it’s guaranteed to never catch fire again. Problem permanently solved. If you’re in the market for a job, I’ve been told that Hellfire (“We may not put you out, but we’ll definitely put you down”) Inc. is hiring.
