SPONTANEOUS HUMAN COMBUSTION
Text: From: "Provod Miroslav"
Spontaneous human combustion
For serious researches, spontaneous human combustion (SHC) is one of the most ontroversial phenomena. The term spontaneous combustion expresses the means by which the human body is able to ignite without any optically recorded extraneous source. An unbelievably high-intensity localized fire transforms most of the human body into ashes. In many cases, some parts of an appendage, e.g. foot or sole of foot, remain unaffected. Some parts of clothing or surrounding objects also remain undamaged. Nothing similar to these fires exists in nature and the accompanying phenomena mock the laws of physics and medical knowledge. One may doubt about records of spontaneous human combustion from the past, but not about photo documentation of such cases in the twentieth century.
All hypotheses explaining spontaneous combustion, including the wick effect, are cast into doubt by the fact that bones were not incinerated in any case when the human body was exposed to fire. When cremated, human bodies are burned at temperatures from 600° to 950° C for one and a half hours, during which time a large quantity of air is forced under pressure into the cremation furnace. Large bones like the pelvis or thigh bone remain distinguishable. They are then pulverized with eight iron balls.
When spontaneously combusted, human bodies directly explode by heat identified as tepid compared to a normal fire. This explosion is short, intensive and concentrated because not even anything in near proximity ignites. In some cases, the incinerated corpses were entirely clothed, leaving the clothing undamaged.
Knowledge gained from the study of charge interaction makes it possible to put forth a hypothesis about spontaneous human combustion. As an example, I will again use a condenser whose voltage we will gradually increase. After we exceed the voltage limit for which the condenser is designed, the insulation material is breached, all energy is released at once, and the condenser is destroyed. Human cells can also behave in a similar manner. Each cell (even bone cells) gains sufficient energy from external influences to be able to destroy itself. The cause of spontaneous human combustion is likely to be the enormous growth of energy on cell membranes, subsequently destroying their insulation characteristics and releasing all the energy at once.
The passage of energy in a much smaller scale can easily be demonstrated by our tracing one energy layer. The charge and length are of no consequence. We seat an assistant at one end and place at the other end a group of condensers with a capacity of several Farads and a voltage of approximately 15V. When the condensers are uncharged, the assistant has an energy field with a radius of approximately 45 cm. If we connect the condensers to voltage, the radius of the energy field by the assistant is considerably enlarged. After the condensers are discharged, the radius of the assistantīs energy field returns to the original value..
Spontaneous human combustion is a very interesting phenomenon. However, of no less interest is the fact that human matter can be incinerated using the energy embodied in it and that only the charge of the cells need be increased to the "combustion point" to do so. That implies that gas furnaces will soon be able to be replaced by much more energy-saving "condenser furnaces". It cannot be ruled out in advance that this phenomenon will be utilized in waste incinerators, etc.
