A dramatic video demonstrates how easily fires are started by this equipment, and also shows how easily these units can be tipped over. Includes a list of other hazards associated with these fryers, and tips for "safer use" for those backyard cooks who "absolutely must use a turkey fryer." Publisher: Underwriters Laboratory Inc.
