 This story was told to me by a dear friend who spent most of his life on cruise ships.

When I was about 9 years old, my father took our family on a cruise ship in the Caribbean (this would be in the late 70's). One highlight of the cruise was the "parade of flaming cherries jubilee" being marched on a waiters head around the dining room.

When I started to work on cruise ships when I was 20, I noticed the "flaming cherries" were no longer being paraded around the dining room on someone’s head.

I'm assuming one of the reasons is because of this story -

Apparently, one time somewhere in the great blue ocean, a spectacle of the cherries jubilee march was parading through the dining room, when one of the waiters dropped his cherries near a female passenger. It appears she had quite some chemicals in her hair that were flammable as her head seemed to join the parade with her now flaming hair.
