A blue flame is hotter than a yellow flame. First, "...the blue flame..." IS NOT more dangerous than "...the yellow flame." The yellow flame is more dangerous because it is an indicator of IMCOMPLETE COMBUSTION resulting from burning with a shortage of air, and thus not enough oxygen. The reason this is dangerous, actually DEADLY, is that when combustion [burning] occurs in an oxygen deficient atmosphere, one of the major byproducts of that combustion process is CARBON MONOXIDE, a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas which is toxic and therefore deadly to any creature that breathes air.
