In honor of all the safety clowns we have on the list.
Now onto a Fireman Hat.
(This will not be step by step photos as this is just my version of Ralph Dewey's Fireman Hat).
You will need:
2 - Red 260s
1 - Flames 5" Round
Start with a Red 260 blown up leaving a small tail, not even an inch and tie it. Make a 1" bubble and ear twist it, now wrap the balloon around the fireman's head and connect it to the ear twist. Make a 4 to 5" bubble and loop the rest of the 260 over the bubble making a 1" bubble in the tail of the balloon and connecting it there. Split that loop in half so you have this.

Fully inflate the other red 260 and make it into a loop, tying the nozzle and end together. Twist off a third of it like so.

Twist it onto the hat that you just made with the smaller part in the front and the bigger part in the back.

Inflate the Flames 5" Yellow to about 4" and tie it high on the nozzle. Make a 1" pinch twist at the nozzle end and twist it into the top of the hat.

A quick fire extinguisher can be made with a red 646.
Now to start the fire we need a BOMB !!!!!!!!!
It's just a fully inflated 11" Red round tied to a silver 260 inflated to about 12" with two 1" ear twists at each end and a 5" Flames tied to the other end.
