UPDATE: 15:00:06 14 July 2009:I want to clarify that "Charcoal" is not the identity of Anthony Beninati who, the year prior to Charcoal's incident, also fell into the burning ashes of the Man in 2005. According to reports, Beninati was a three time veteran of Burning Man whereas Charcoal was a virgin when it happened. Unlike Beninati, Charcoal did not sue the Black Rock City LLC nor does he plan to do so.
