Quote: "Police in Northglenn are trying to determine how a man was injured in a fire while sitting on his tractor. The police department said in an email that authorities were called to a parking lot on Thursday after a witness saw the man and rushed to his aid. The witness grabbed a fire extinguisher from his truck and smothered the flames."

Note: Didn't see anything about the tractor catching fire so this might've been another person bursting into flame, similar to the woman in her 40s who burst into flame while sitting on a bench at an oceanside park in coastal Flensburg (Germany), mentioned in the 2015-11-05 update. That's most likely to happen to people when they're outdoors, fully exposed to the atmosphere, although obviously, with all the vehicles bursting into flame, you're still way more likely to burn to death in a vehicle than to go up in flames yourself...

2016-02-15 - Man films the Condamine River burning as methane bubbles up, in Chinchilla (Australia):

http://www.itv.com/news/2016-02-15/australian-river-is-bubbling-hot-suspected-gas-leak-fuels-fire-on-water-of-condamine-river/

Quote: "An Australian man captured photos of flames on the surface of the Condamine River, which has experienced mysterious methane bubbling for nearly four years. Jon Jenkyn posted photos to Facebook showing the Condamine River's surface on fire near Chinchilla, where methane first started bubbling to the surface in 2012."

Note: The Meiyu River ignited in coastal Wenzhou (China) in 2014, mentioned in the 2014-03-08 update. So far as I know, that was the first river to burn. Bellandur Lake has caught fire a couple of times in Bengaluru (India), first mentioned in the 2015-05-16 update. Methane belched up from a pond in Lambton Shores (Canada), mentioned in the 2015-06-17 update. Methane and hydrogen sulfide belched from coastal Santa Monica Bay, mentioned in the 2013-03-03 update. And so on and so on. As more and more bodies of water become contaminated with flammable methane and hydrogen sulfide, expect to see more bodies of water burning. And now that the huge methane clathrate deposits are melting off both the US East and West Coasts, it is not at all inconceivable that we'll see the oceans themselves burning, and those fires may be impossible to extinguish and may burn for a very very long time...

2016-02-15 - Man, 70, burns to death sitting in chair at home in coastal Chesconessex (Virginia):
http://www.delmarvanow.com/story/news/local/maryland/2016/02/16/body-idd-fatal-va-shore-fire-taken-examiner/80463594/

Quote: "'Apparently his clothes caught on fire. Nothing else was burned, not even the chair, really,' Schmid said."

Note: Here's a Google Maps link of the area. I've warned about this many times: clothes are adsorbing methane and/or hydrogen sulfide. While you might smell hydrogen sulfide, you definitely won't smell methane, since it's odorless. Then your clothes can ignite via static electricity, any heat source, an electronic device, etc, and these fires will burn hot and will frequently be fatal. His clothes probably got contaminated while he was outdoors - right on the coast near where 5 trillion pounds of methane are dissociating, probably not coincidentally - then he came inside, had a seat, ignited and burned to death. That's why his chair wasn't too burned - it hadn't been contaminated like his clothes were...
