After (unfortunately) having taken organic chemistry, I know that reactions happening spontaneously can happen spontaneously but over a VERY long time. Spontaneous just means it is “favorable” or doesn’t really need any extra energy or push for it to happen.

    Okay no lie, I actually am surprised they discounted the “ball of fire” theory because of the existence of ball lightning. Obviously we’d need a lot more information such as the weather, the charge in the room, etc but given that ball lightning is basically a ball of roaming plasma looking to discharge, and little is known about the damage it can cause to someone if struck by it, I think it’s a theory that at the very least can’t be ruled out.

      I searched ball lightning up, it says on Wiki that it leaves an odor of Sulphur. However, in this particular case, there was no detection of any smell or odour from the room where she was burnt. So, in the end this theory might not be the case.

    Just a random theory, but there could be a totally plausible explanation for the way poor Ms. Reeser died- while modern furniture had safety requirements, any older chairs/couches in those days often used an incredibly dangerous type of foam (see the 'Woolworth's fire' of 1979 for further example) that wasn't just flammable, but also released toxic fumes as it burned. Perhaps only part of her chair used these materials, or maybe the lab didn't want to acknowledge the culpable source- who knows? But it's possible that she took the pills, and a fire started somehow (whether due to her cigarette, or something else) and she was incapable of responding to it in her incapacitated state. Given her age, it's possible that she was pre- or already an (undiagnosed) diabetic and her one foot had limited blood flow or some other medical restriction leading to that limb not being as easily burned. Tragic, but hopefully she wasn't conscious for any of this...

They actually mentioned someone who fell asleep with a cigarette and ended up catching themselves and their entire couch on fire. Also, a woman was making tea standing next to her stove, and her nightdress caught fire burning her alive. I instantly thought of this case.

      Yeah my thought too. and back in the day they used to associate alcoholism with spontaneous combustion (read Bleak House for an example haha). So often two factors that seem to be associated with "spontaneous combustion" are drinking and smoking. Light yourself on fire because of the smoking while too drunk or sedated to be responsible, and then don't react because you're passed-out drunk or drugged. Wick effect is a bit more complicated than described in this ep also, and even explains the fat in the rug and the fact that feet are often left behind.

    • @rileighchristine_
      @rileighchristine_ 4 года назад +240

      My mom used to take barbiturates (the same class of sedatives she took in this case) and if she took too many she would nod off and fall asleep sometimes with a cigarette in her hand but I would watch her all the time and put it out if she dropped it. So this theory is extremely plausible to me. She said she took 4 total.

    @ChaoticHoly 2 года назад +31

    Fun Fact: All human cells contain mitochondria, symbiotic organelles with their own distinctive DNA which humans rely on to turn the foods and such we eat into the chemical energy that actually feeds us. This conversion process can flash as hot as 5000°F. Normally this isn't an issue, but combine this with health issues that affect the body's ability to product/absorb glucose (diabetes), alcohol or medicine intake that can further affect this absorption/chemical conversion process...maybe?
    Fun Fact 2: Human skull shrinkage is a thing. Skulls naturally shrink with age, but not to "cuphead" sizes as in this case. However, various cultures such as the Jivaro Indians from Northern Peru and Southern Ecuador actually "shrunk heads". Without going into the gory details because it's pretty gross, the shrinking of the skull is caused by boiling the heads for a certain (don't know) amount of time to 1/3 the normal size, then shrunk further by inserting hot rocks & sand inside to shrink & "tan" it from the inside.
    If nothing else, this suggests that her _brain boiled as the rest of her body flash-burned._

    This is most certainly the wick effect.

A lot of those were also attributed to spontaneous human combustion at the time.

    When looking at the topic of how she did not react to being set ablaze, one must remember that prior to her falling asleep, she was given many sedatives. Which may have caused the combustion firstly, rendering her unable to react. Or left her too far under to react to any combustion.

    Here's my own suggestion, and a disclaimer, I'm not a fire expert. When this incident happened, on average it took 17 minutes for a residential fire in a room to reach flashover (when everything in a room simultaneously ignites). This was mainly based on what the furnishings were made of. Back then, most of the furniture was made of natural materials, such as cotton and real wood, unlike today where furniture is made with accelerants (which causes flashover in 2 - 3 minutes). While I have no explanation for how most of her body was gone, I think it's possible that the fire burned itself out before flashover could occur. There are still many unanswered questions, but I figured I'd throw this out there.
