BBs Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) Why not? Let's see what Wikipedia says about it :) - Intestinal conversion of food into methane by methanogens which when released through the pores of the skin can catch fire when triggered by various sources (e.g., silk cloth generating static electricity).

The test of liver and kidney were said to be normal and X-ray results showed no damage to the bones. However, the doctors treating the baby are in no hurry to rule out the possibility of child abuse.
