A pizzaiolo takes an impressive flashback when he puts a pizza in the oven

A pizza chef suffered severe facial burns in an impressive accident. While lighting his pizza oven, a sudden explosion occurred, throwing an intense flame right into his face. The explosion could have been caused by a build-up of gas from the fuel used, such as wood, or by a backdraft phenomenon. The pizzaiolo, surprised by the intensity of the heat, had only a very brief moment to react.
