<font color=Orange>Is it real or is it fake?
What do you think?

I think it is quite real. I just do!</font>

"SOB", I know it's real, it happened to my uncle Billy Bob after he ate 5 cans of beans.

Yes, I believe in it wholeheartedly.
Hey look, is that the Tooth Fairy pulling one of Santa's teeth, wow, she's got quite the dentistry now.. I hear she gets such customers as the Boogeyman and umm, some other imaginary creatures. ;)

it's a bit of a muyth to be honest. Each case of people bursting into flames for no apparent reason has been explained in the past

an example:
Spon Com

Human wick effect seems more likely to me.The victim is either intoxicated,asleep,and or is overcome by the smoke and fumes after the ignition source has started the fire.The bodies own fat fuels the fire but dosn't create a hot enough flame to burn the whole place down.The discovery channel actually had a very interesting show on this just recently.

i used to read a fair amount on it years back.

one case involved a guy that had 2 uranium-based watches that increased his internal temperature

another slept too close to a fire butb actually had spilt some alcohol on himself

so the "spontaneous" nature of it is pretty non-existent

<font color=Orange>But there is unexplained cases such as 'The Cinder Lady'. Noones figured out what happend to her. Her body was in ashes except for a foot and a shoe, her chair was destroyed, but nothing else was touched, except for some smoke stains. Scary scary.</font>
