Spontaneous Human Combustion: Unexplained Fires in Human Bodies

Spontaneous human combustion (SHC) is a controversial and poorly understood


phenomenon characterized by the sudden and unexplained ignition of a human body,
resulting in partial or complete incineration. Cases of SHC typically involve the
discovery of charred remains with little to no external evidence of fire damage to
the surrounding environment. While skeptics argue that most alleged cases of SHC
can be attributed to external ignition sources, such as cigarettes or open flames,
proponents of the phenomenon suggest that unique chemical reactions within the body
may be responsible. However, scientific consensus on the existence and mechanisms
of SHC remains elusive, relegating it to the realm of mystery and speculation.
