potholder Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Fire breaks out at Salt Lake crematorium LAST UPDATE: 10/25/2006 8:08:14 PM Story by: Larry Warren news@abc4.com A dead man had one final earthly act before moving on. Fire officials said the six-hundred pound man was in being cremated when his body fluids were too much for the oven. The body fluids seeped out onto the floor and ignited causing a fire at the Garner Funeral Home in Salt Lake City. "Those fluids can be very flammable," said Scott Freitag of the Salt Lake City fire department. "Sort of like a grease fire." An employee used an extinguisher to put out the fire. The room is self-contained and has its own drainage system. "There really is no risk or a hazard of it getting into the sewer system, the water system or into the general public," said Freitag. Firefighters rarely see these kind of fires. But they say a six-hundred-pound body can create problems during a cremation. "It really does condense or breaks down that fat into a greasy product, just like a grease fire," said Freitag. "Only a little bit can cause a flame to go up." The crematorium is back in business and the funeral director said they'll notify the family to assure them their loved one wasn't harmed. link :lol: how can you harm a dead person?
