A fire dancer set his head alight during a party in Knysna, the NSRI said on Sunday.
The man, in his late 30s, was performing at a party at the Buffalo Bay caravan park on Saturday night when he caught alight, the National Sea Rescue Institute's Knysa station commander Graeme Harding said in a statement.
The man was treated for first and second degree burns to his head and taken to a local hospital in a serious but stable condition.
Fire dancing involves swinging burning objects, such as balls attached to chains, around ones body.
