A video of a woman almost losing her life while setting someone’s car on fire has garnered the attention of thousands. The video was shared on the social media platform X on March 1, 2025, and has since received more than a million views. The shocking footage shows the woman wearing a black hooded sweater, grey sweatpants, and black shoes.
The footage begins when she is dousing the vehicle’s interior with gasoline. The vehicle is parked alongside other cars outside a building. She can be seen pouring the liquid inside a black car from one of the rare windows.
Afterwards, she puts down the container on the ground and proceeds to set the car on fire with what appears to be a match. However, she sticks her body inside the vehicle and sets the car on fire, causing a big explosion.
The impact of the explosion threw her onto the ground and apparently shattered a glass. While the flames engulf the car’s interior and spew outside the car, she scurries away but returns for the container and what appears to be a stick before fleeing the scene.
The video was captured by an onlooker watching the woman from a window. “Here’s a good question: why didn’t the person filming this try and stop her?” one viewer asked, while another indicated that the onlooker should be arrested along with the woman if the person did not alert the police.
“People watch too much tv where they light fires with 20 liters of gasoline when 0.5 liters already does enormous damage don’t play with what you don’t control,” a viewer said.
In the comments, viewers speculated that she may have been taking revenge on an estranged partner. One viewer stated, “Revenge of a betrayed woman.”
Another viewer said, “she gonna have a banging headache.. don’t she know that gasoline fumes are kind of explosive? xD a car with half tank of gas explode more then a full tank thanks to fumes.”
