Quote: "The driver died from injuries sustained in the fire. Further investigation revealed the vehicle did not crash. The vehicle appeared to have become stuck in the driveway, Maiatico said. The heat from the catalytic converter and the vehicle’s exhaust system ignited some leaves or other debris near the vehicle and started the fire, Maiatico said."

Note: Obviously that person was either unconscious or already dead or else they'd have simply walked away from the fire...

Quote: "A fire broke out Sunday at another high-rise tower in the Dubai Marina, just days after a blaze struck one of the world's tallest residential towers in the same neighborhood."

Quote: "The fire Sunday began on clothes left on a balcony on the tower's 53rd floor, said Capt. Amer Abdulwahab al-Qahtani of the Dubai Civil Defense. He said investigators believe either an improperly disposed cigarette or combustion caused by the late morning heat, which was a sunny 109 deg., ignited the blaze."

Note: So clothes ignited and started this fire, but they don't know why. I've mentioned the clothing igniting problem before in relation to the people who have burst into flame - it's not spontaneous human combustion (except in a few instances where it was the person's hair that burst into flame), but spontaneous clothing combustion. Also see the SUV that went up in flames on a highway in Dubai on this day...

Quote: "A Queensland family say Nissan needs to recall their troubled SUVs after their car spontaneously exploded into flames in their garage and destroyed their home in minutes."

Note: They can recall all the vehicles they want but since the problem is the atmosphere, the cars will continue bursting into flame. Any vehicle that contains a battery and electrified copper or which has any rust on it is going to burn. Also, any vehicle that uses friction for braking and which has either flammable tires or flammable brake pads will eventually burn too. Your vehicle might be safe if it's a simple motorless aluminum canoe, but it's hard to get around town in one of those...

Quote: "Wyatt and her neighbors told firefighters they heard and felt an explosion around 3:45 a.m. 'I mean, it almost felt like something fell on the house,' she recalled. "It was the biggest boom I’ve heard ever. The closest I can liken it to is a bomb going off in the military,' added Rell Grayas, an army veteran who lives two doors away. 'Like I said, it shook my bed.' Soon after the explosion, flames were seen shooting 75 feet into the air with the entire home engulfed in flames. Firefighters on the scene within two minutes said they found evidence of an explosion."

Quote: "No RAF airplanes went sonic on that day. Moreover, you would not get a flash with a sonic boom. No lightning strikes were recorded over the whole UK on Sunday night and Monday morning. So astronomers said it may have been a comet or asteroid explosion while entering the atmosphere at about 35,000-55,000 miles an hour."

Note: It's also consistent with a large cloud of gas - probably methane - belching from the ocean near there and igniting and exploding in the atmosphere...

Quote: "A 38-year-old businessman from Bengaluru was charred to death when a car he was driving caught fire at Madukkarai in Coimbatore in the early hours of Sunday. The man died inside the car as he could not unlock the seatbelt and escape."

Quote: "Dileep Kumar, a Bengaluru-based jeweller, along with his family was going to Kochi from the city when his car’s engine suddenly caught fire near a toll gate at Madukkarai area early on Sunday morning, they said. He managed to push his wife and two children out of the car. However, he could not unfasten his seat belt on time and was burnt to death as the flames spread rapidly, the police said."

Note: A van just burst into flame and incinerated six people and injured five more the day prior in coastal Karachi too, mentioned in the 2017-08-12 update. Best to carry something in your vehicle at all times with which to break windows and cut seatbelts, else you could end up dying the same way as this man, which has got to be a highly unpleasant way to die...
