I've heard that a certain mix of rubbing alcohol and water can light you on fire without burning you just the alcohol i'd rather not try it without a second opinion. i'd also like alternative methods to choose from, i consider myself a rocker and want to ignite myself on stage. (it'd be cool)

remove the lock for the door and look at how the 2 parts fit together. there will be little stem that turns from the inside knob that fits into a slot on the outside knob. or a the stem may cone from the outside knob and fit into a slot in on the inside knob. you just didnt get right when you installed it. just take it off and study it. you should see what i mean. and look at the instructions again if you have them.
