A California woman was left brutally disfigured after flames 'exploded' in her face while making s'mores over an outdoor fire pit.
Viana Poggi, 18, was enjoying a fun summer night on July 6 with her cousin Alaina Arbiso when chaos unfolded before their eyes.
While using a cement tabletop firepit flames suddenly blew toward Poggi, leaving blistering burns on her face and arms.
'We were making s'mores and what happened to me is called fire jetting. It's when an alcohol-fueled pit basically explodes,' the Laguna Niguel resident told KABC.
Some tabletop fire pits, like the one Poggi used, are fueled by rubbing alcohol, but when hers needed to be refilled with the substance nobody knew a small flame was still burning inside.
