Now during this process the gases remain in their gas form and are flammable. For Spontaneous Human Combustion to work it would have to start in the lungs as that is where a majority of the flammable materials which could be ignited are found, it is the central part of the body mass and covers enough of the human body to “melt” part if not the rest. Where oxygen become and is store (as well as abundantly found as) is when the oxygen is passed from the blood stream into the cells, where the oxygen is process, stored or passed back to the blood stream as Carbon Dioxide. Cells (muscle, skin and fat) when they store it do store it as H20, which makes the average human adult about 55% water based. Now this is where the debate comes in and I will refer to KenX’s post for a very viable reason human combustion as you normally hear it does not exist, if (as I stated earlier) the human body does combust from the lung (only place possible) then the composition of the rest of the body is designed to put you out before there is total consumption (I still believe you would die, just not be a crispy critter). KenX stated the exact temperature range to melt the entire body like what has been reported and since that isn’t a possibility as of yet, much less one to occur with the human body from the little trace amounts of found in the lungs, Spontaneous Human Combustion does not exist as it has been stated by some sources. I believe it could happen but would produce lethal but non-externally visible results. Quote:

![]() ![]() Credits: 260 | Re: Spontaneous Human Combustion Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah This whole thread made me laugh. Not in a mean way...I just found it funny is all. Well now that I got that smartass spam remark out of the way..... Eh, Well the reason I started laughing at first was becuase I was thinking of someone like concentrating on harnessing the energy and will power to start a combustion within themselves triggering a massive explotion...Hahah Well now instead of nonsense from my thoughts...Seriously..I don't think it's possible really. I mean if you digest something that makes a chemical reaction and all that good stuff then well uh duh. But "SPONTANEOUS" I think not.

http://mistupid.com/chemistry/aircomp.htm Component Symbol Volume Nitrogen 78.084% - flammable Oxygen 20.947% - flammable Argon 0.934% - non-flammable Carbon Dioxide 0.033% - non-flammable and some Rare Gases. Most of which are again flammable and since they reside in the lungs until exhaled, my statement stands.

Death is the beginning | Re: Spontaneous Human Combustion Quote:
and if the air is so flammable then why doesn't it just burn up? Mybe because all thoes elements togather are not flammable which also makes me think that all of the elements combined that make up the human body are not flammable either

(I must appologize, I previously listed Nitrogen as a flammable gas, it is NOT upon further research) I understand that this greatly reduces the amount of flammable gases in your lungs however there is still more than enough Oxygen that is inhaled as well as that is stored in your lung's air sacs to support becoming a crispy critter on the inside.
