If you’ve ever wondered what college students do when they’re bored, click through to this series of videos that Ed Comeau, a former fire investigator and the founder of the newsletter Campus Firewatch, compiled from YouTube.
Mr. Comeau sat down for a Q&A with our colleague Eric Hoover to talk about campus fire safety and why so many young men still think it’s cool to play with matches.

Boys will be boys (where are all the girls playing with fire?). Boys will also be very stupid, not just for endangering their (and others’) lives, but also for documenting this publicly. Can’t wait until their prospective employers find these.
