Man sets himself ablaze to prove love for wife
2010-12-21
[Emirates 24/7] A 60-year-old Saudi husband doused his clothes with kerosene and set himself ablaze to prove his love for his wife after she abandoned him, the Arabic language Sharq newspaper reported on Monday.
I'm burning
I'm burning
I'm burning for you...

After persistent disputes, the wife decided to abandon her husband and live with her parents, prompting him to send many pleas to her to come back.
Awwwwww, c'mon baby. I never stopped having the hots for you...
"But she adamantly refused to return home...so he went to her parents' house, poured kerosene on his clothes and set himself ablaze in front of the house."
I'll show you! I'll show everybody!
The paper said passers-by succeeded in putting the fire out and rushing him to hospital in the southwestern town of Jazan. It did not elaborate on his condition or say whether his wife has returned to him.
My guesses? Severely burned and no...
