    Quick tip: the rag does NOT go into the mouth of the bottle. It goes wrapped or tied to a CLOSED bottle. If the bottle is open and the rag in the opening, you risk splashing the liquid on yourself and your friends when throwing

      The Finns perfected this shit during the Winter War - skip the rag altogether. Put the lid on and tie stormproof matches to the outside.

          You know that storm proof matches have a layer of oxidizer on the stick so that they can burn in any conditions, even under water, right? It’s not your regular matches

            Not from the supermarket, but from the camping dept. Come in a waterproof cylinder to store them. Coghlins makes them, probably the easiest to find, Walmart or any outdoors store.
