Watching episode Baby It's Cold Inside, there was a crucial scene in which Jack found some cardboard and asked Mr. Furley if he had a match when they were locked in the freezer. Mr. Furley had one remaining and lit it and when Jack said he wasn't ready for the match yet, Furley blew it out and both men regretted it.

Actually, it was a huge blessing in disguise. Didn't Jack and Furley realize that if they actually lit a fire to keep themselves warm inside the freezer, it would burn out all the oxygen and they would die of asphyxiation?

At the time I thought it was a stupid idea as well. If they did manage to get a fire going and keep it going, I think they would suffer from smoke inhalation or carbon monoxide poisoning before the oxygen ran out. But hey, its just a TV show!
