whatever happened to Spontaneous Human Combustion?
- Thread starter squallumz

A guy who lived a couple blocks away from me spontaneously combusted, it was sad cuz I knew his ****** but it does happen! All they found were his feet in his shoes and some fingers, the rest of the body burned to a crisp. Plus the house didn't burn just the carpet where he lay

Weird-ass movie, saw it when I was younger because Brad Dourif was in it and I thought "Hey, if he was awesome in *****'s Play, he's gotta be awesome here too."
I figured it out a long time ago back in school the moment I heard most who spontaneous burst into flames are heavy drinkers, smokers, or overweight it became quite obvious.
Fat burns easily and if they drink and smoke, or just smoke, they burst into flames.
Nothing supernatural about it.
Move along folks.

According to Trey Parker & Matt Stone this happens when one holds their farts in, so if you don't fart enough this could happen to you 
Like with so many other myths, it was in the end discovered that the facts about the claimed cases had been misprepresented and adjusted to fit the legend.
Yes there are cases where they have found the remains of humans who have died in fires, but just because you don't know for sure what caused something doesn't mean it was supernatural causes.

Whimsy, does that explanation truly satisfy you? It's not like these people burn for a week .... they spontaneously combust and burn to ashes where they sit - at a rate that is seemingly impossible to stop.
It's not like some fat guy sits in a chair having a smoke and drops a piece of ash on himself which begins to smolder - and his ass is too wide to allow him to get up ... so he sits there for a week sobbing while he melts.
... in these cases, people go up like matches.
No, they don't... that's just what is claimed in the myth but those claims never hold up when examined thuroughly.

Well, whatever. I won't be examining it beyond these two posts so ... my point was simply that you can't just hold a flame to a fat person and watch them burn down to their shoes and socks. :anonymous
