"I Leave Ye with a Riddle..."

Basically someone posts a riddle, if you know the answer, you post the answer along with another riddle. You'll recieve 1 point for each one you get right, the names will be place on the score board, in the order of the most points.

Rules
1. Only one answer per member per question.
2. Once a question gets five wrong answers a new one will be set.
3. If a riddle isn't solved after a day, a new one will be set.
4. Don't use the Internet to find the answer. However, if you're to set the question, you may.
5. I'll decide who gets the point (by this, I mean, if you argue with me, I'll reset your score)
6. You can ask questions, within reason.
7. Rules 1 and 2 are lifted if the riddle contains a good few paragraphs.
8. If a riddle needs to be set, anyone can set them.

Nope, nobody anywhere near close, they're all entirely lost at sea.

Try and think what objects they do have, and how they could be used.

o0o Are there other dingies around, with people and lighters?

:O They breathe fire!

Hehehe, ok.

Bob, ma main moose, you wasted your answer :P

Whoever ets this also gets 5 points ^^ I'm nice :D


And just for this one.. Rule #1 is lifted :)

If it helps any - remember it's a riddle, it's not going to be set in complete reality, and all the back story is there to throw you.

Someone suddenly bursting into flames, I think due to a buildup of gaseous substances in their body.

EDIT: And Bob the Moose is both quicker at posting, and more knowledgable. And I want to watch that programme, sounds rather interesting.

It's when people, or other objects I suppose, burst into flames or at least burn with no external source of ignition. I saw a TV program with Bruce Dickinson about it.
I don't think anyone's ever presented anything resembling proof that it really happens and no it wasn't a serious answer :P

And as for the answers so far:

Wrong wrong wrong wrong

Sorry I just love that clip

Sorry, I meant that -he- was waiting until the -others- had died before smoking them, but he realised they were doomed, felt altruistic, and decided to share them around instead
