Mr Trichan discovered his talent seven years ago when he was splashed with searing hot oil after a feasting squirrel knocked a mango into his frying wok.

Damn feasting squirrels.

Squirrels, I knew they were just more than nut steelers and bird table raiders.

Better by an anti squirrel guard for my wok just incase I discover some hidden talents and end up in the book of world records

I really like Squirrels.

Id love a pet one.

Did anyone see the guy with his devoted little companion?

Nutty the Squirrel?

I can think of better things to do.

I was stepped into a pan full of hot oil in a kitchen

Collapsed from the shock of the pain!

In fact it's a slightly resized pic. Taking off the ?width=... bit yields this: http://failblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/fail-owned-record-breaking-fail.jpg

If you dip your hands in water beforehand then as you put your hands into the oil, the water turns to steam instantly and forms a protective layer which stops you getting hurt.

And here's a bigger version, and one which can simply be img tagged so you don't need to click a link

Are you willing to demonstrate this?

Indeed, was on mythbusters once but rather than boiling oil they used molten lead.
