What a terrible way to die.

Wish the poor fellow had gotten some mental health help--or maybe he did? Not much info on his life...

Actually, once the flames burn off your nerve endings, you don't feel anything. I watched a video about it a long time ago. Guy was an electrician that plugged in the wrong voltage to a transformer and it exploded in his face. He ran all over the factory on fire and went to the infirmary where they called 911. He was still conscious and speaking clearly, in fact didn't realize he was still on fire as they put him out. He died later in the hospital once his wife made it to him.

Before that happens, it would be god awful pain, at least to me, maybe not people you watch videos of.
