3 words to sum up this. WTF?
I got interessted into this though, I'll admit it. Who wouldn't
be interessted in people blowing up in a flaming fireball for no apparent reason? Don't answere that.
Here are some factsabout this crazy a screwed up piece of nature.#
- Charles Dickens Used this to kill off an alchaholic in
his book, Bleak House.
- This lead to people believing that alchahol was the fault of
it.
- Pagans (and some more moderners) thought it was the devil
claming your soul. Which makes sense if you think about it.
- Over half of the victims were women
- most of them were elderly and lived by them selves.
- Most of them were smokers.
- All of the cases happened indoors.
- The heat reached up to 100 degrees celsius, and they found vapourized
skin on the ceilings (!)
