A member asked:
Is spontaneous human self-combustion possible? a friend shown me a story online and since i'm very anxious. could you help me?! please i'm terrified!!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spontaneous combusti: Please don't lose sleep over this - There is NO scientific evidence to suggest that humans - alive or dead "spontaneously" burst into flames. Almost all reports in the literature are of obese people - sometimes alcoholics and smokers. A source of ignition is generally found - cigarette or candle. see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_human_combustion.
