A video of the incident, which almost ended in tragedy, appeared on social networks and informational publics in the region.
The description says that this morning, in a house on Pobedy Avenue, an Orenburg resident entered the elevator with a cigarette and a glass. It may have contained alcohol or flammable liquid. The man struck a lighter, the liquid instantly flashed. The flame was very large. The victim's outer clothing caught fire. When the elevator doors opened, he had already fallen into the fire. But I was able to recover and get out of the fire. As we managed to find out, the victim is alive, doctors are working with him. Apparently, the fact that fire is not a toy needs to be reminded not only of children, but also of adults
