down in flames

Any endeavor which fails in an awe-inspiring or spectacular manner. Origin of phrase taken from old WW1 movies where the Red Baron shoots down an opposing French or British biplane fighter, which then spirals down out of control, trailing a long streamer of flame and smoke from burning fuel.
Did you see Joe trying to hit up that hot chick at the club last night? She took one look at his geeky 70's clothes, haircut, and nerdy glasses, and shot him down in flames without even opening her mouth to say a word!

jack downs

Jack Downs is one of the most loyal, funny, amazing, kindest most sweetest person you could ever meet. If he cares about you, he'd take a bullet for you and put you first above any other priority! He has amazing eyes, although he's shy if you get to know him he'll be you're rock and your shoulder to cry on.

He'll never cheat, although he makes mistakes he'll do everything to fix things.
