Deceased Obese Woman Causes Crematory Blaze
A cremation facility in Austria suffered a harsh fire, leaving the building gutted, after cremating an obese woman. An investigation concluded that the body fat from the nearly 450 pound woman blocked an air filter, causing the filter system to overheat and catch fire. The widely reported story has sparked controversy over whether there should be a standard weight limit for cremation to prevent further blaze
