Shirtless maniac with a FLAMETHROWER jumps on top of a Brooklyn bus and sends blasts into the air before setting fire to the road surface as part of a stunt for a music video

The New York City Police Department confirmed on Monday that it is investigating an incident in which a shirtless man jumped on top of an MTA bus with a flame thrower and fired it into the air. 

Social media footage was shared from the incident which took place between Putnam Avenue and Franklin Avenue in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, at around 5.30pm on November 8. 

It showed the man jumping onto the B26 bus, which was carrying more than two dozen passengers, from an ice cream truck and firing off the flamethrower over the gathered crowd while they cheered, shouted and recorded it on their phones.

The man stayed on top of the bus for about 30 seconds as it stopped at the intersection before walking to the back as it began to move. 

He then aimed the flamethrower to the ground and set part of the street alight before jumping off. 

According to the New York Post, the stunt was carried out as part of a Wu-tang tribute music video by local rapper Dupree God, who also posted drone footage of it to Instagram. 

It is not known if Dupree is the man who jumped onto the bus.

'Flame Thrower Bus Jump,' he wrote.  

'Wutang music video shoot was insane. It was a movie. It was f*****g epic. Much everyone to all who came out  

'We shut Franklin Avenue Down. With amazing energy. We are in this together. We The ILLest. Video coming,' he added.  

In a previous post, he had invited fans and friends to join him between 2pm and 4pm that day, where he'd be handing out free ice-cream, champagne and t-shirts as they filmed. 

'We outside tomorrow. Pull up to my music video shoot for my new song Wutang. It's a celebration,' he said. 

The NYPD and MTA have voiced their concerns, however, about the dangerous stunt and confirmed that there was no permit approved to film on the bus.

'We are aware of a video circulating social media that shows a man using a flame thrower on top of a bus in Brooklyn,' the NYPD said in a tweet. 

'The incident is currently under investigation. We have the utmost confidence in our @NYPDDetectives that this case will be solved quickly.' 

'We don't even need to say how absurd, dangerous and just plain stupid this was,' added MTA spokesman Tim Minton. 

'The reckless individual who torched over the top of an occupied bus put New Yorkers, including the bus operator, in life-threatening peril.' 

The video was also condemned by the NYPD's Sergeants Benevolent Association, who shared it on Twitter, taking a hit at the defunding of the city's police department. 

'NYC is NOT safe YOU are being lied to,' the union raged in a since-deleted tweet.

'Keep defunding the police this will become rampant.' 

No injuries were reported in the stunt, according to the Post, and the 25 passengers on the bus were moved to another bus at the next stop.
