Shocking Self Immolation In New York: Man with a Tibetan flag dies after setting himself on fire in front of UN headquarters

I think it's a great thing that mentally ill people off themselves like this, two thumbs up!!!

good wow is it one of my state fair freak show performance??

Sad to see 23 cars, 2 trucks, 1 bus and 3 cyclists passing by after he set himself on fire, before two people blasted the fire extinguisher empty.....

People don't care about the illegal occupation of Tibet by the Chinese --let's see how they'd respond when I zapp 1 billion Chinese from existence from my Star Destroyer....

Free Tibet, dirty commies!

He did great, it takes guts to stand and burn like that, too bad that changes nothing about whatever was hi plead.

It is terrifying how long you can survive while fully engulfed in flames. Guy took it like a champ. Didn't even scream.

Well he showed them!

If you're on fire that long, you don't wanna survive.

Wouldn't it be nice if all protesters did this?

Looks like another protest against NYC’s new 78°F air conditioning thermostat regulation.

Lama-style barbecue.

Did it like a Boss

I'd do this too if I lived in New York city

These are my favorite by far. It is a good way to spot the "true believer" attention whores from the "i didnt think this through" attention whores. Most people get lit on fire and INSTANTLY regret it, not this guy. F the extinguisher, stand next to that man and clap, pull out a stick for a weinie roast and have Rustyblades make some smores.

How he could resist so much time standing while burning??

Those guys did him no favors with the extinguishers. By the time he collapsed & lay down his lungs would have been completely fried from inhaling flames that whole time. Absolutely zero chance of survival. Would have been more merciful to get out the marshmallows...

Another orange clown

This happens a lot in New York for some reason.
