Ha Ha, I don't think I would try it. And you won't catch fire with the carbon build up crud.
I used to work as a laborer on a asphalt paving crew. We did a lot of shoveling and raking of the hot asphalt, and the stuff would stick to our shovels like mad (as you might imagine). So we kept a large barrel of diesel fuel to dip our shovels into, to coat them, so we could shovel into the asphalt. I remember the smokers in the crew would regularly throw their lit cigarettes into the barrell of fuel to put out the cigarette.
