So a few years ago, I was in Montpellier, France; visiting my grandmother. While there, I came across a street performer who happened to speak english and was performing fire breathing. I talked to the man for a while, and he taught me the basics of the art. Since then I've been slowly working on getting better at fire breathing; learning techniques, better fuels, etc.
Right now, I'm still using 120+ proof alcohols as fuels, since its the most available to me, but I plan to upgrade to more efficient as I get better.
Here's a video my nephew recorded recently of me practicing.

<bad joke>That's one spicy meatball!</bad joke>
Remind me never to get you mad. :c
Nice.
I'm going to guess a basic of it is: Don't breath in through your mouth when you do it.
That's fire...No idea. Sucking maybe?
