I can understand your excitement. Well done. There is nothing like the sound of whooshing fire whizzing around your body.

Wow, I've watched a lot of fire videos but this one really has that raw enthusiasm. I'm so moved that I'm a bit teary eyed. Well done!

Congratulations! No body would ever know that was your first time! I am 58 and so far I am the oldest fire hooper ( poi, fans, flow wand, hand torches, wings) I know - for that matter one of the oldest hoopers I know : ) But hey, how old would you think you are if you didn't know how old you really are!!!??? I think with all this stuff of hormonal changes and old age forgetfulness we should "selectively" forgot what we know our age to be!!
Welcome to the wonderful world of Fi-ah!!! Flame on!!!
