Well, lighting fires is possible but not without precise and adequate preparation. First, you need at least a full liter of alcohol. This is to be used on your skin as a layer of protection from anything that can happen. Gently soak your skin and hair in it as to protect yourself from any possible flame retardant issues. Now, once completely soaked, it's important to find the right kind of spark.
Most sources recommend a magnifying glass. While positioning this magnifying glass far enough from your chest so that the focus of light is at it's smallest, hold the focal point on your left nipple until you smell burned hamburger. Ignore the pain initially, this is just temporary.
If ignition doesn't happen when smelling burned hamburger you can use an electrical outlet. To apply this method of ignition, simply get a paper clip and bend it out all the way straight and then make a u-turn bend so that there are two even prongs spaced approximately 5mm apart. Then, using both prongs at the same time quickly insert into a standard 120VAC electrical outlet and hold using your thumb and index finger until ignition.
If still no flame is reached, a small disposable cigarette lighter can be used. Extend hand outward and strike the flame while gently bringing the flame to your hair. Ignition should finally occur.
