So the local jerk at work who can't handle a torch managed to ask me to do something for him - so I did, then got distracted and lifted the torch straight at me as he looked down, causing a burst directly at my face from 4 or so feet away. I was looking down at the time so I believe I didn't catch a direct burst, but the pressure from it was on my face for atleast 2 seconds.
Told him to watch it, but apparently came home with a reddish face. Question is, harmful and go see doc immediatly because acetylene is a substance that absorbs in skin, destroying it from the inside out and making your eye balls rot, or annoyingly stupid of him and I should slap him one tomorrow for making me into rosey cheeks?
