Of course , he was not a smart as you are.

(17 April 2006, England) There's always someone who thinks good advice doesn't apply to him. For example, if a doctor advises that you are going to be covered with a flammable medical treatment, most people would take this advice onboard, and not strike a match until the flammable material has been removed.

Philip was in the hospital to treat a skin disease, said treatment consisting of being smeared in paraffin-based cream. Philip was warned that the cream could ignite, so he definitely should NOT smoke. However, Phillip, 60, knew better than his doctor. And he just had to have another cigarette.

Smoking was not permitted on the ward, but Phillip took this setback in stride and sneaked out onto a fire escape. Once he was hidden, he lit up... inhaled... and peace descended as he got his nicotine fix. It was only after he finished his cigarette, at the moment he ground out the butt with his heel, that things went downhill.

The paraffin cream had been absorbed by his clothing. As his heel touched the butt, fumes from his pyjamas ignited. The resulting inferno "cremated" his skin condition, and left first-degree burns on much of his body. Despite excellent treatment, he died in intensive care.
