Spontaneous human combustion - Perhaps not so spontaneous after all

Spontaneous human combustion is a hypothetidal fenomenon consisting in a person suddenly begins burning by means of ansupposed inner energy. The fenomenon is highly controversial though.

It is a fact, though, that persons or animals sometimes are found dead in a highly burned state, without any apparant external heat source. And sometimes people and animals have been seen spontaneously begin burning or people have experienced it, but got only lesser injuries and can tell about it later. There are still however a lot of possible external energy sources that can explain many of these cases.

In some cases the victim dies or faint out due to other causes, and and an area of his body gets in contact with some heat source at the same time. This source of heat can then dry out the skin at that place of the body of the victim. Then fat can siepe out and begin to burn. Clothes or dry skin can also work as a wick and help pull out more fat that will nourish the fire. Areas around the burning spot will then also dry out and leak fat in the same way, and the fire will then spread to these new areas. In this way the fire can slowly spread to great parts of the body that will then be gradually consumed. This is called the wick effect.

Possible explanations can be ball-lightnings, regular lightnings and discharges from air to ground. One has actually seen ball-ligtnings appearing and approaching people and then set them on fire for some moment before the energy is consumed. Usually the injuries are only moderate and these cases do not get tagged as SHC. But a weak individual might be knocked out and then burn further due to a wick efect. Sometimes the energy content may be greater so that the injury is fatal only from the energy in the ball-lightning, and if the incident is not seen, it will be filed under SHC.These witnessed ball-lighning cases are actually so numerous, that I strongly suspect many of the SHC-cases to have this origin too.

It is interesting that not only living beings suddenly burn this way, but also objects. There was a history in a Norwegian newspaper about a table telephone that mysteriously began burning. It was impossible to estinguish the fire, so it was thrown out in the snow and let burn off. The telephone provider company did not find out the cause of the happening.

There is however still another explanation to be focused on: Some of the offers for SHC may be guinea pigs for experiments with microwave weapons, and some societies may use such weapons to get rid of individuals the authorities do not want to have there.

We know microwave weapons exist that can heat objects or persons at a distance. We know that some variants are already used by police forces for crowd controle, but usually only to cause an extremely unpleasant heat. Probably these weapons can also be used in a much stronger mode that make persons catch fire.

Military laboratories might use selected persons as test objects, and then choose persons that are in a socially weak condition. Such testing can be the cause of many of the spontaneous human and animal combustion cases we read about in news media.
