Original Note:
This the saying "FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE" in action using controlled burns and backfiring. An area is set on fire under control to create a manmade firebreak. Backfiring uses "fire-spreading gadgets...including forest fire torches or fusses...propane torches and drip torches" https://science.howstuffworks.com/nature/natural-disasters/wildfire.htm https://www.wired.com/2015/08/flame-throwing-helicopter-fights-wildfires
