They’re ‘burners’ in the vernacular because they make things burn and burning stuff is kinda cool, but they were thrown because they are more chemically potent.

This gas can cause humans to have burning eyes and start to feel as if they are being starved for oxygen.

In other words,, “I feel as if my lungs are burning”
