All i heard was, "don't be a dumbass,"

although the lack of stability of the burner stand they used is disturbing. I would remedy that somehow.

Over-filling the oil is a definite problem, but also easily overcome. Turn off the burner before lowering the turkey into the pot (DUH). Then wipe it off the pot, keeping in mind that the pot is 300 degrees. Yes, when you re-light the burner, some residual oil will light, but it won't be the inferno they showed...

have done it twice with no issues either time. To make sure i have enough oil in the fryer, I put in the bird, fill it with water just high enough to cover the bird, mark it with a sharpie. The i pull out the bird, dump the water, dry the fryer, dry the bird, pour in oil, get it to 360 and SLOWLY lower the bird. Then i sit back with some Maker's Mark and watch the thermometer and make sure things are as they should be.
