Chinese Mystery Fire Man

An 80-year-old man in Yuhang, Zhejiang, is a mystery; no one can figure out why fires seem to break out on or near his body.

Last Sunday, the man, surnamed Hu, was transported to the city’s public security bureau for an inspection.

The story began on January 15, when Hu reported feeling hot on his posterior while he sat beside a stove with his granddaughter. Then smoke was spotted coming from him, and a hole had burnt through his trousers.

That day, he burnt six pairs of trousers he wore and the quilt on his bed. Since then the fires could break out at any time.
