Going up in a puff of smoke?  Spontaneously starting on fire?  I bet that's not what  92-year-old Dr. J. Irvin­g Bentley had in mind for his death, but that's exactly what happened in 1966 in the state of Pennsylvania.  He wasn't the first and he hasn't been the last to spontaneously combust.
As curious as it is, this is a serious matter and has been studied by universities around the world as to how a human body can catch on fire leaving only a body part or two without harming anything else in the room!
Judy Sellins and Dave Turco will bring you the latest and perhaps the final word on spontaneous human combustion.
