'First Irish case' of death by spontaneous combustion

West Galway coroner Dr Ciaran McLoughlin said it was the first time in 25 years of investigating deaths that he had recorded such a verdict.

Michael Faherty, 76, died at his home in Galway on 22 December 2010.

Deaths attributed by some to "spontaneous combustion" occur when a living human body is burned without an apparent external source of ignition.

Typically police or fire investigators find burned corpses but no burned furniture.

WHAT? How is this possible? A few years back people were questioning if spontaneous combustion was even possible. Could there be an internal ignition point in the body we dont know about? Pyrokinesis perhaps?

Im still a bit skeptical on the matter and I guess I will be until I see it myself. The fact the bodies are burned and not the surrounding areas is a bit odd. What do you guys think?
