Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



Have you ever thought to yourself, "Gosh, it'd sure be fun playing videogames while blasts of fire hit my face!"  Well, the latest episode of Boing Boing Video has the answer for you!

Dance Dance Immolation is a mod of Dance Dance Revolution that brings in lots and lots of fire. Miss a step while dancing and you'll get burned! People play DDI while wearing a flame-retardant suit to prevent injury of course, and according to the Boing Boing Video interview (after the jump), no one has been hurt by this mod ... yet.

The crazy mod was created by Interpretive Arson and they're going to have another event in two months over in Oakland, which is just an hour away from me ... Oh f*ck. You people are going to make me go do this now, aren't you?

Crap.

This is really old. lol I thought most people knew about this already. It started at Burning Man, which is a huge even in black rock city Nevada.

When I tried it, it felt totally safe, but then again I am really good at ddr lol

I suck at DDR. If I tried that, I wouldn't just be the first injury, but the first fatality for that mod.

People actually got a grant for an idea involving dancing and flames in your face. There are so many things I can say about that statement, very little of them good.
