The Spokane Police Department is investigating the circumstances that led to a man arriving at a local hospital with severe burns while still on fire.
The police department responded Monday to a report that a man had been dropped off at an emergency room at a Spokane hospital while still on fire, and that his clothes were covered in a flammable substance, according to a news release from the department. The incident that led to the man being on fire occurred in a neighborhood in northeast Spokane near the Esmeralda Golf Course.
The man sustained serious burns on 30% of his body and was transported to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle for further care. Police department spokeswoman Julie Humphreys said Tuesday afternoon that the man was alive as of Monday and that she could not disclose more information regarding his condition.

This is too weird even for Florida man. Who drove him to the hospital? Did he catch an Uber? What was the condition of the upholstery in the car?
Couldn’t the Fire Department find his house?
Lol…you are right! We’ve had over a week in the 90s and this was bound to happen.
Just a cotton pickin’ minit here. I’ve seen South Park. It comes from holding in farts too much.
I got a serious burn on my hand once (3rd degree, but in a relatively small area)
It hurt like all heck.
But when I submerged my hand in a bucket of water, the pain completely stopped.
I slept that way (with my hand hanging over the bed in the water) all night.
By the next morning all the pain was gone. I still had the severe burn, and it took weeks to heal, but there was no more pain.
Does anyone here have experience in a hospital burn unit? Do they do this for patients?
Well, that truly trumps my cutting in line at the campus doctors office and when those already there protested I took my hand down from my head to show it was covered in blood.
They stopped fussing. Eyes got big.
You and Spokane Man…doing anything to get to the head of the line.
Florida Man has competition!.................
He was just transforming.
(Have you ever wondered if there’s such a thing as genetic evil in the world?)

I’m going to posit that you are secretly a salamander.
