We’re not talking about some weird spontaneous combustion or some sort of dastardly criminals who set fire to people. Well, actually, there is a criminal of sorts involved. Liquid fabric softener! The lady in question was wearing a terry cloth bathrobe that ignited when a cigarette was dropped on it. The fire spread so quickly that she was unable to discard the garment and perished in what probably really did amount to a “ball of fire.” So what does the fabric softener have to do with it?
