For the rest of us, not privvy to USN safety footage, what happens ?


Ahhh..... Well, the first 90% of the movie is done in a humourous
vein, with some well proportioned, scantily clad young ladies playing a
significant role. A recently removed and ignited bra is dropped into a
puddle of LOX and immediately goes up in a large ball of fire. The line
"I gotta get this LOX cart back or the Safety Officer's gonna have my
ass" is uttered 2 or 3 times by said ladies in different situations,
adding to the humour.

This is all a setup for the final minute, when we get to observe a still
breathing alleged victim of a LOX fed fire, lying on a gurney at the ER.
An incredibly gruesome picture - just a bunch of red burnt flesh with no
hair or facial features.
