Yes but he hung himself instead. Oh Matty was such a card.

Consequences of Fire in the Wax Museum
Matthew Burke
You ever thought of what would happen if we had a fire here? In the cellar, there are six barrels of wax. Wax is paraffin based. It's highly inflammable. This place would go up like a paint factory.
Prof. Henry Jarrod
Burn? Burn all of my people? You think I'm a murderer?
Matthew Burke
Stop dreaming, will you? These dummies are insured for $25,000. That's $12,500 for each of us. You wouldn't need Wallace, you'd have enough to begin again.
Prof. Henry Jarrod
No, I'd rather die myself than see my friends destroyed; I won't let you do it, and I'll kill you if you try!
Matthew Burke
Don't be stupid! All you have to do is strike a match, and the thing is done.
