French firefighter Jonathan Vero, aka Joe Ignition, turned Côte d'Or into a fever dream by riding his fireproof Yamaha DragStar 1100 for 442.10 meters—fully aflame. Trending queries like “longest full body burn motorcycle” and “can you survive being on fire?” now feature his name. “Physically it’s very tiring – the suit is very heavy and the position on the bike is uncomfortable, but you have to focus on winning and give it your best shot at the risk of burning yourself,” Vero dryly explained after his record-setting blaze.

Having ridden a motorcycle inferno dressed as a human torch, Vero already holds two other fire-based records—including a 17-second oxygen-free 100m sprint. Top trending searches—“is full body burn possible?” and “stuntman world record fire”—have made him a cult curiosity. Vero’s inspiration? “I wanted to pay tribute to Ghost Rider,” he revealed, as his children watched their father transform into a real-life comic book paradox.

Jonathan’s previous record: a 272.25-meter full body burn run, achieved without oxygen, while dressed as the world’s most combustible dad—a feat that took over a week to recover from.
