Well if the fire was at a consant say 350* the nerve pain resepters would be completey gone at about 45 seconds cause of the body lipids in the skin (lipids act as oil) but bone and skin pain resepters have diffent nerve endings in the spine. So you wouldn't fell much after the first mintue untill your organs started to cook and if you were lucky you would go into shock before the big stuff happend but thats at 350* you can't get much hotter unless you have a gas or oil fire but I would set a complete death t about 2-12 mins depending on many factors long hair, body weight, diet, interal gases, accecrrent, heat of the fire, ect ect (hope this helped)
If it is like the current bush fires, than your skin receptors would melt and the pain would stop only for a few seconds until you feel your insides being burnt. In all 1-2 mins max. But if your lucky enough you will inhale hot smoke and ash and get severe shock that would leed to a heart attack. If not you will choke to death
There are several factors. It really depends on the situation. Most people trapped in house fires pass out and die of Asphyxiation, hypoxia or heat exhaustion before their bodies burn. On the other hand there is a YouTube video where a young man is trapped in his car from a wreck and you can hear his screams for several minutes. Factors include how hot the fire, how big the fire, access to oxygen, distance your body is from the fire, how fast the fire, and which parts of the body burn first. Also take into account, the person needs not to actually catch on fire to feel the painful effects of burning. Just being close to a fire can cause screaming pain for minutes before the fire even begins to consume them. As for the one you mentioned about the girl trapped. Unable to move, she most likely died of hypoxia or suffocated before the fire consumed her. The screaming was most likely pain from thermal heat against her body as the fire drew near.
The one where you described them running around on fire, it took longer to die. They had access to oxygen and therefore didn't have the luck of dying of hypoxia first. Only as the thermal burns consumed their organs did they succumb, Which took several minutes.
You reall never burn to death you would most likely breath super heated air /gas/fumes in causing suffication from the swelling/blistering of the throat and then the shock would likely cause a heart attack at the same time..
Only interested because I was watching a video on Hiroshima on youtube where this 6 year old girl was stuck under some rubble, and her mother tried to help her but there were fires very close by, and she didn't want to die so she left the child, but she could hear her calling to her saying first that her leg was hurting her, then it was too hot for her to stay where she was, then the fire was burning her and then she started screaming really badly and then the video moved on and I saw a japanese guy who was walking he was as black as coal all over and on fire all around his legs and up his back and head the front of him from waist up was okay and he was just walking and then seem to lay down. Also I saw a group of kids who were caught in a forest fire they were all on fire as they ran through the flames to try and save themselves and then the video ended. So I was just wandering smoke was not visible they were on fire only, so how long would it take to burn to death?
