 Even more rare than cases of ‘Spontaneous Human Combustion’ is the dreaded condition known as ‘Spontaneous Cranial Explosion’, where a persons head actually explodes without noticeable outside influence or cause. Here is a link to a web site that documents a couple of cases;

 Heads up Mr. X, this may interest you in particular.  ;D

Mr-X
Hmmmmmm why would it interest me for? lol.

I guess you should'nt think too hard these days in fear of your head exploding. X
Tommy
LOL

This sounds promising. This is off that site:-

"Although HCE is very rare, it can kill. Dr. Martinenko says knowing you have the condition can greatly improve your odds of surviving it. A "yes" answer to any three of the following seven questions could mean that you have HCE:

Does your head sometimes ache when you think too hard? (Head pain can indicate overloaded brain circuits.)

Do you ever hear a faint ringing or humming sound in your ears? (It could be the sound of electricity in the skull cavity.)

Do you sometimes find yourself unable to get a thought out of your head? (This is a possible sign of too much electrical activity in the cerebral cortex.)

Do you spend more than five hours a day reading, balancing your checkbook, or other thoughtful activity? (A common symptom of HCE is a tendency to over-use the brain.)

When you get angry or frustrated do you feel pressure in your temples? (Friends of people who died of HCE say the victims often complained of head pressure in times of strong emotion.)

Do you ever overeat on ice cream, doughnuts and other sweets? (A craving for sugar is typical of people with too much electrical pressure in the cranium.)

Do you tend to analyze yourself too much? (HCE sufferers are often introspective, "over-thinking" their lives.)"


sounds like we've all got 'the symptoms' of SHC!! :o


Tommy :D

Oh, no, MYSTIFY, say it ain't so!

Well I guess that answers your question as to what has happened to all the forum members, Mr. X.  :-/

There's also cases of animals exploding aswell.
the exploding cat, Peppi, who detonated without explanation in the Anmer Lodge Old Folks Home in London and 26,000 chickens (all fortunately dead at the time) that expoded on Larry Mohler's ranch in Oregon.

There's also a case of an 82 year old patient of Nottingham Hospital who exploded in 1988 while he was having surgery.
Mystify
That is a cool pic MM.

Here`s a theory, what if all these people just sold there soul to the devil and when payment time came... well. POUFF!!  LOL

Isn't this a joke? It seems prtty far fetched if you ask me. A chess player who's head blew apart.. Poor Einstein, imagen what would happend to him if they had invented that disease some years earlier..

How can you "invent" a disease? How can someone's head explode? It's not like their haed is full of gunpowder, or is it? ???
PurpleStuart
Yes it is a joke, it was an article in one of those papers who come up with such headlines as "WWII bomber found on moon!" followed the week after by "WWII bomber disappears from moon!"
dean-g

Kira

I think the official name for this is, the Werzil Gummage head problem!

I'm going to deduce from the fact that the only article I can find written by this subject was written by the "Weekly World News" that this is a bunch of bologna and probably never happened. The names are probably even made up. Anyone want to research the chess player allegedly involved?

I wonder if you can get a sick note for this???? tongue.gif

As long as you don't ask Mrs Venus, commonly known by students as 'The V.E.T.'

Let us not forget the "Spontaneous Scrotum Implosion" or the infamous "Pretty Quick Big Toe Meltdown." In the jungles of Peru there is even talk of the "Peculiar Nose Disappearence." laugh.gif w00t.gif

I can understand dead chickens exploding (gases from decomposition). But a persons head suddenly turning into mince, sound umm like a crock of crap, like that movie with the people that had those necklaces with bombs attached, and when they went beyond the perimeter their melons popped. XD mmm Discount barber @_@
babyforrest
Could you imagine a doctor performing a serious and long surgery, and all of a sudden, without warning BAM SPLAT SQUISH...damn we lost another one. Now what? rolleyes.gif
Blood Angel
Your gutted if you wanted a open coffin at your funeral XD!!!

Looks like something outta "Scanners", from Cronenberg.

What i like best are the symptomes, like craving for sugar!
As soon as i have a son, i'll teach him everyday that sweets are bad for your head, not your teeth.

Hey iv had a headache for 6 consecutive days,when i wake up in the morning and when i go to bed is when it is the worst.Am at risk of this?or is it something else?
tired_dad
So that is why stuff keeps dribbling out my ears!! I had a dud!! grin2.gif

What I think is interesting (Oh no here he goes again) is that all these amazing events take place somewhere other than in a slightly more civilized area. I mean come on, how often is it that it always happens in remote Russia, the highlands of Brazil or the swamps of Mississippi. It never takes place in the middle of downtown NYC.

I have to go now and put out the lit fuse hanging out of my ears. blink.gif
