HelloSpontaneous human combustion (SHC) is the alleged burning of a person's body without a readily apparent, identifiable external source of ignition. The combustion may result in simple burns and blisters to the skin, smoking, or a complete incineration of the body. The latter is the form most often 'recognized' as SHC. There is much speculation and controversy over SHC. It is not a proven natural occurrence, but many theories have attempted to explain SHC's existence and how it may occur. The two most common explanations offered to account for apparent SHC are the non-spontaneous "wick effect" fire, and the rare discharge called static flash fires. Although mathematically it can be shown that the human body contains enough energy stored in the form of fat and other tissues to consume it completely, in normal circumstances bodies will not sustain a flame on their own.
The first reliable historic evidence of Spontaneous Human Combustion appears to be from the year 1673, when Frenchman Jonas Dupont published a collection of Spontaneous Human Combustion cases and studies entitled De Incendiis Corporis Humani Spontaneis. Dupont was inspired to write this book after encountering records of the Nicole Millet case, in which a man was acquitted of the murder of his wife when the court was convinced that she had been killed by spontaneous combustion. Millet, a hard-drinking Parisian was found reduced to ashes in his straw bed, leaving just his skull and finger bones. The straw matting was only lightly damaged. Dupont's book on this strange subject brought it out of the realm of folkloric rumor and into the popular public imagination.
On April 9, 1744, Grace Pett, 60, an alcoholic residing in Ipswich England, was found on the floor by her daughter like "a log of wood consumed by a fire, without apparent flame." Nearby clothing was undamaged.
Colours have not been reportd in the so called apperition of SHC victims becuase no one had filed a report that any such victim have been contacted. However, victims are reported to die pretty quickly in such cases and therefore it is supposed that colour differences may not be observed. On the other side of the arguement, it can be argued that apperitions of supposed ghosts could portray colour sheen as do other apperitions as with the clothes they display to the observer. However in all the reported cases of SHC limbs are reported to be left intact, so my guess is that you would see this in the image itself.
please could you tell me when these figures appear to you and your friend also on what background do they tend to appear as this could make a difference in the way you percieve colours. Also, what is it about the figures that make you both suspect they are (SHC) and did the act of SHC take place where you saw the apparitions?

and now i can breath.....
