A modern Pains-Wessex standard 1 inch (26.5mm) Very flare is designed to reach a height of at least 100m and burns for 8 seconds. See data sheet on their web site http://www.painswessex.com/Leisure/signal-cartridge-calibre-4-265mm.html

They also make a Very parachute flare that can go 300m in height.

What happens if you shoot someone with a flare gun?

Depends on the flare gun and the distance. A flare gun launches a big, very light projectile that happens to be on fire. Not intended as a weapon, but at VERY close range, could be used as one.

How do you extinguish a flares fire?

It's very difficult. Flares typically have a fuel/oxidizer mix contained within the flare, allowing them to burn even when not in the presence of oxygen. Smothering a flare will not work. You either need to let it burn out, remove enough heat so that the chain reaction ends, or remove the burning part from the rest of the flare. Police are trained to grind the flare in to the concrete until it is out.

Can a 12 gauge flare be fired from a 12 gauge shotgun?

Yes, provided the gun does not have a full choke. Cylinder bore (no choke) shotguns are best. A full choke may cause the flare to get stuck. If the flare gets stuck in the barrel it may melt it, or at the very least dangerously weaken the metal. This may cause the barrel to fail catastrophically when you fire an actual shot round.

Who was the opening band for acdc in tacoma wa 1983?

This was a very interesting and unique show. This was the last time they ever played "This House is on Fire". During the song, some moron decided to launch a military flare from the floor, igniting the wooden roof of the Tacoma Dome on fire. An interesting note, during the song Brian noticed what had happened and changed the chorus to "This Dome is on Fire". This fire was put out without having to interrupt the show. I happened to be standing right next to this idiot who lit the flare when he did this. This was also the first show played in the Tacoma Dome. I think Ted Nuget had the opening act.
