From The Brisbane Times:
A man from the Royal Australian Air Force who suffered horrific burns in a portaloo explosion, remains in a serious condition. The man received third-degree burns to his head, face, arms, chest and airways in the incident at the Rockhampton airport about 9.30am yesterday.
The Department of Community Safety said it's believed the man was lighting a cigarette at the time, a spokeswoman said. He was taken to the Rockhampton Hospital but transferred to the burns unit of the Royal Brisbane Hospital overnight. He remains in a serious condition, a defence spokesman told AAP.
Do we file that one under second- or third-hand smoke?

Anti tobacco will attribute only a proportion of each death in explosions to smoking; so this may be a rare case of the harm caused by smoking being under-reported. On the other hand, he was probably smoking in the porterloo because of a ban; and so his death can be viewed as caused by anti tobacco fanaticism.
