Need a light? This trope does. But this trope doesn't just need a light, it needs a light that stays lit when you toss it. Disposable lighters do not stay lit by design, as a safety measure. A cigarette, cigar, or flare just doesn't fit the scene (and the former two don't actually burn hot enough to ignite gasoline). A match might go out before it lights the fire. So what do you do? Zippo to the rescue! Zippo lighters have a distinctive design that was originally based on a similar Austrian lighter made by IMCO. It is "windproof" (as described by The Other Wiki) and uses a wick and oil to keep the flame lit until you close the top. They have been in use since the 1930s, but this trope seems to be relatively new. The main reason for this trope is about the mechanics of the device and how it can keep a flame while being tossed from the hand. While the character lighting the fire could use a disposable lighter, they would have to bend down to light the flammable item on fire, and that is just not cool. Often this trope is used for dramatic effect as well. While the character flicks open the lighter and snaps the flame into existence, he or she can do a bit of monologuing (and possibly light a smoke for themselves or their victim into the bargain). At the end of the scene, they toss the lighter, the flames begin, and often this leads to someone's death by fire, or a very big explosion. Equally often a character will do an Unflinching Walk as the flames rage behind them. |

Cowboy Bebop (2021). In "Blue Crow Waltz", Vicious tortures and murders a member of the rival Neptune Cartel, setting the body on fire using this trope. It's a sign of his stupidity as the slow motion shot of the lighter flying through the air shows it's marked with the Syndicate crest! All Vicious has done is spark a Mob War. | |

Arrow In the episode "Burned", a pyromaniac attempts to light someone on fire by tossing a lit zippo but Arrow in typical superhero fashion fires an arrow to deflect it. The poor lighter is still gone and never recovered. In "Brothers and Sisters", Ricardo Diaz is murdered in his prison cell by being soaked with gasoline pumped through the sprinkler system, then someone throws a lit Zippo into the cell. He actually catches the lighter before it hits the ground, only for his hand and then the rest of his body to go up in flame. |

In season 3 episode 4 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. a zippo is left behind to blow up a building. Interesting note is it is not actually seen being dropped or tossed, but the camera focuses on it left on the floor to light the gas pool. Later in episode 6, of the same season, the scene is replayed and the zippo appears to be tossed, but again, not on camera. | |

In the Naruto anime, after Shikamaru managed to trap Hidan with lots of wires with explosive Paper Talismans attached (above a giant hole), he deals the final blow by throwing his dead mentor Asuma's zippo lighter (as a Revenge by Proxy), dealing nasty blow on Hidan's body and burying him. In the manga, he used a cigarette instead. | |

On Supernatural the brothers use salt, lighter fluid, and a disposable Zippo so often this show might just be the Trope Codifier. They do this to properly dispose of the creatures they kill so that they don't come back. In more recent seasons they seem to be using matches more often, but typically they do so by lighting the entire book on fire and lobbing it. Perhaps it's still cheaper than buying dozens of lighters, since we never see them fishing around in the remains for the lighters. After a number of seasons of using a book of matches instead, season 13 episode one ends with a heartfelt moment and Dean following this trope to the letter as he tosses a zippo on a funeral pyre for Rule of Drama. and tho it is less often seen - as body clean up seems to be mostly "off camera" after so many seasons establishing the concept - when they do show a body being burned, the series seems to have returned to the Zippo for the last seasons, right up to one last toss in the series finale. It's also lampshaded in a very meta episode where they meet a couple of cosplayers dressed as the boys and enlist their help in burning the body. One of them has a lot of trouble getting the lighter to stay lit and complains that Dean (who he thinks is a fictional character in-universe) always manages to get the stupid lighter lit on the first try. |

When nobody confesses to the earlier attack on one of the gang members, Brother Sum shrugs and tosses the lighter. The Coolie steps forward to catch the lighter in the air before it hits the gasoline, and he closes the lid on-screen to extinguish the flame. | |

In KickAss it appears it will be played straight, but is averted at the last second due to the man holding the lighter getting shot. Then it is averted again when another person lights the fuel up but seems to hang on to the lighter. It is a bit hard to see however since the lights are out and the only source of light in the scene is gun fire! | |
