Maybe they should put on a new warning label:

CAUTION:

STERNO IS NOT A LUBRICANT!.....

He either got a little bit hot under the collar or it was due to the friction.

“SHC ... recorded cases are almost always associated with drinking alcohol...”

Those cases also involved individuals who were obese.

BBQ experience: With enough fat, meat becomes combustible.

There have been numerous cases over the years of Spontaneous Human Combustion.

Do a search on the name “Mary Reeser” for one of the more well-known ones.

Could this bizarre incident be attributed to a higher power?

"I believe so. I definitely believe so," Huang told AOL News, adding that he hopes the unidentified man is recovering from the burns.

The police aren't ruling anything out.

That would be the ultimate zotting.

“Amyl Nitrite is very flammable. That’s my guess.”

I agree with you. I bet he was doing a post-pleasuring popper in the video booth when he decided to fire up a cigarette or joint. In that closed environment, the fumes caught fire and voila’ flaming perv running down the street.

Richard Pryor lit himself on fire with high proof booze. The freebasing story was made up by his pr people.
