Smoking can kill you.

Those labels on cigarette packs should mention this as a possible means of demise.

I heard that reminds me of a fake story someone posted here about saving money on gasoline by buying it in the winter to use in the summer

I am quite certain that it wasn’t the cigarette because you can douse a burning cigarette in gas unless there is a high-oxygen atmosphere (enough to make the cigarette burst into flame) present. Igniting gasoline requires a flame, spark or (rarely) intense pressure & heat. It’s far more likely that there was vapour in the air when he lit the cigarette.
