Years ago I read a few Arthur C.Clarke and similar books with stories about this. One that I remember was some student that just burst into flames just walking down the university steps. Reasons for it all were never known so the books said. Wha's the score with them then? Is it all a load of tosh? Has it been proved or disproved? And if it's real, why hasn't there been any recent cases in the news since I read these books about 25 years ago? (Unless I missed it :) )

amazingly spookily all the cases have happened with out any witnesses.
All the people it happened to were heavy smokers who liked to drink petrol.
If you think about it
many times you are filled up with methane after eating various food combinations ..
methane is combustible ..
ive seen people expelling it in the usual way and by using a lighter
making it look like a flamethrower in action !! :0 :0

Humans who had an abnormal love of beans being killed when a spark ignited a built up cloud of fart-gas in their poorly ventilated apartments imo
all were found close to a source of heat. Body burns/ fat acts like a candle .
Since every human body contains varying strengths of electrical field and the human body also contains flammable gases (mainly methane in the intestines), an electrical discharge could ignite these gases.
interesting the stats on this :-

1950's - 11 cases
1960's - 7 cases

Methane (a flammable gas produced when plants decompose), that gradually builds up in the intestines and is ignited by enzymes (proteins in the body that act as catalysts to induce and speed up chemical reactions), is considered to be one of the most plausible explanations.
it could be an angry alien or a ghost with a grudge
other theories that have been proposed, speculating that the fire begins as a result of a buildup of static electricity inside the body .
Wonder if the remains of victims were buried or cremated
