Take it into a freezer at 45 degrees below zero so it cools down rapidly and freezes before it is extinguished. At that point it is very fragile, so handle it with care. And don't put into your pocket, bacause as soon as it warms, it will spring back to life and sear your testicles, which you probably deserve for asking a stupid question like that.

A flame won't freeze, but if you keep lowering the temperature it will go out at some point. If too much heat is lost too quickly from it, the reaction will not be maintained. It depends on what's burning. Different fuels have various ignition temperatures, and produce different amounts of heat.

no1 knows 4 sure, beause a flame isent actually a solid liquid or a gas dont ya know!! its actually plasma, the 4th state, and dont snap if im wrong, i think plasma somehow dies after not being fed energy, or just stops existing, sooo if you cooled it down you would use all this energy up thats keeping it alive(its not really alive, i meen stable or "there")

No but you can cool a flame this is when carbon monoxide is produced.IE when a flame touches something else or it does not get enought oxygen to burn properly

A flame is glowing air. The air is glowing because it's hot. (red = cool, yellow = 6000o like our sun, blue = much hotter.)
If you froze the air, it wouldn't be hot enough to glow (in the visible range) so you wouldn't see a flame.

YES, This is how you do it:
Take out your camera and take a picture. The flame is frozen!
Haha I did it!

Yes. Fire becomes a solid at -308 farhenheit.
