I had a little kid do that just after I had pulled to a stop. I hadn't even undone the seat belt and this little fella was putting his jandalled foot up onto the side exhaust pipe. Now this was in my T Roadster and you can imagine the smell of burnt rubber plus it took forever polishing the rubber off.

I can relate to that.
Pulled the Cobra into a carpark one day, got out, was walking away when I heard a noise behind me.
Turned around; and some idjit had walked right up to the lake pipes and melted his nylon trousers into his shins.
Took an age to get that melted nylon off the stainless.

Common sense is about as common as fingers in a leper colony.
