i thought crematorium workers knew that special handling was required on really really large people to be cremated. i actually thought they split them up into 2-3 sections because normal oven sizes weren’t designed to safely cremate such large masses without overheating and even catching on fire. |
Cue 'Animal House'...

You know... That just could be the man.
Maybe they tried but just could not separate the man from the recliner. Fused, ya know?
And if said recliner was not one of them fire-proof jobs, well then....

I thought they would not cremate people past a certain size just for this reason. The high fat content is dangerous.

Dang, that is a heckuva grease fire!
Actually, surprised they could fit him in.
Yeah, it is gallows humor, but I grew up with it.

This has happened multiple times before. Grease fire.
Furnace owners ought to know better by now.

People who drink a lot should never be cremated. The fire can get out of control.....

The SS soon learned that to incinerate the bodies they
had to include one fat person for each two skinny ones.
