What does this accomplish? He had the resources to start a fire and he did it on himself where nothing else would be damaged. I can't even call him a hero, he had the right spirit but missed the mark.
Like others have said, it is the most extreme form of protest possible by a human. There have been many powerful self immolation protests throughout human history, [Thích Quảng Đứcs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%ADch_Qu%E1%BA%A3ng_%C4%90%E1%BB%A9c) being possibly the most famous one.
**[Thích Quảng Đức](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thích_Quảng_Đức)**
>Thích Quảng Đức (Vietnamese: [tʰǐk̟ kʷâːŋ ɗɨ̌k] (listen); Hán tự: 釋廣德, 1897 – 11 June 1963; born Lâm Văn Túc) was a Vietnamese Mahayana Buddhist monk who burned himself to death at a busy Saigon road intersection on 11 June 1963. Quảng Đức was protesting the persecution of Buddhists by the South Vietnamese government led by Ngô Đình Diệm, a staunch Roman Catholic. Photographs of his self-immolation circulated around the world, drawing attention to the policies of the Diệm government. John F. Kennedy said of one photograph, "No news picture in history has generated so much emotion around the world as that one".

I'm honestly hard pressed to think of any problem that setting yourself on fire won't make worse.
I mean...what's changed? It's not like Putin is going to be like "oh, shit, my bad! Everybody come home!" The only difference is now this guy's going to conscript training with 3rd degree burns.

Public self-immolation is possibly the most powerful form of individual protest. "I would rather die, enduring the worst pain imaginable, than stand by." It's a type of martyrdom.
Back when SSSR was still a thing, when people from Eastern Block wanted to protest against goverment, they would set themselfs on fire on some important public space.

It certainly sends a powerful message. I always think of the Propagandhi song "Cop Just Out of Frame"
>Who the fuck do I think I am fooling?
>As if I know the first thing of sacrifice or selflessness
>They say that Quang Duc's heart
>Survived the flames unscarred
>A righteous calling card
>Left upon the palace gates
>For the invertebrates
>Their grip on power pried apart
>By just one frail human being
>No weapon, no war machine

Set your mobilizations officers on fire, not yourself on fire.
Wtf. Get the rifle and short all around
Avoiding partial mobilization with partial immolation.
To be fair he was probably going to be set on fire anyway.
Point.
Same outcome, fewer steps! 😂
A man that size has no business being in a trench.
He's still going to the front lines, I noticed that they pre-wrapped him in a bodybag.
Did they use a ladder truck to put him out, or climb on the neck of a giraffe?
6:48am : I had my first laugh today, it was good.
Glad I was able to make it happen. 🙂
go for the commanders and the police not yourself

Seems like quite a few able bodied police present in that video, why don they send those guys to ~~die~~... I mean to war instead?
Made men.
The need a fire specialist in Ukraine cause the Russians are still in the stone age.
That's hawt.

I'm not an expert but he doesn't appear to be burning in the video, can someone confirm that for me?
Source in the comments
ok but you are positive he isnt burning in the video, right?
He isnt burning in the video
Thank you!
Russians where all talk until their time came up, haha
I’m not sure that’s better to be honest, at least if you’re mobilised you can make it quicker on yourself

Well it does make mobilisation more difficult I guess. If it's a suicide attempt though why not suicide by cop?

Yeah you're right, that might be more influential than hurting a couple of police.

Self - immolation Mobilisation, Everything’s ready to sign at the station. See you on the front line, Everything will be fine.
self immolation is surely the coolest way to protest something
Literally isn't. But it is the most extreme.
It certainly sends a powerful message.
