Fireball Teenager Regrows His Skin, Minus the Freckles

By Queuebot in Everything Else on Feb 23, 2009 at 3:07 pm

Teenager, Aiden Kelly who got caught in in a fireball after a friend stupidly threw an aerosol can on a campfire, has regrown his skin without any scarring. The only difference? The redhead’s distinctive freckles didn’t return!

The 40 year mother of two said: ‘After it happened it looked like all his flesh was falling off. It was absolutely horrendous, he didn’t have any skin left on his nose.
‘Now he’s absolutely fine. He’s even lost his freckles which he is really pleased about,’

looks like they didn’t do that, Senor.

So, to get rid of freckles, all you need to do it melt your face off? nice!

Honestly, though, I think the freckles added character.

I know a guy who did the same thing. He was making homemade bombs out of beer bottles and black powder, though. He was an idiot… but he doesn’t have freckles anymore.

wow , this brings back memories … painful ones

in december 08 i was involved in a vapour flash, whilst performing maintenance on a machine… recieved superficial burns to the face (although not as bad as that lads .. but whilse the skin healed , my freckles were gone too when the new skin was revelaed from under the scab .. also any wrinkles around my eyes were gone too …

so ladies , instead of spending many thousands of pounds a year on face creams , my advice to you is to get involved in an explosion !!!!

1) This kid is extraordinarily fortunate not to have any scars.

2) What’s wrong with freckles?

So … fireball = freckle cure? Wonder if anyone is going to try to put a patent on that.

Must be something about brief intense heat involving just the top layers where, you know, freckles grow. Major burns ‘nother story. Hey, Major Burns.

He looks like he went into a chocolate cream pie fight.

give it time the freckles will return. I noticed it should be freckels because of the way we say the word.

Hmm, I smell a new cosmetic procedure brewing…Really, if some women will pay thousands of dollars to have poison injected into their face, surely they will have no problem having a few age spots scorched off their epidermis for a small fee…
