Man Who Set Fire To Cheerios Box On General Millss Lawn Dies
Michael Leisner, who botched an attempt to burn a box of cereal on the lawn of General Mills, has died of a heart attack.
Leisner posted video of his act online, with it showing him scrambling to stomp out the flames before he hurriedly instructs his off-camera friends to get in the car. The video made its way onto cable televisions The Daily Show and Chelsea Lately.
Leisner died Saturday while waiting in his car for his sons to finish playing tennis, said Dwight Denyes, senior pastor at Emmanuel Christian Center in Spring Lake Park.

Condolences to his whole family. I've lost two loved ones to sudden heart attacks, it's an awful experience that I would never wish on anyone.
