That's bad karma...a former Health Minister dying attempting to deep fry a turkey.
Perhaps the most dangerous cooking method.

They're actually delicious, but one must know what they're doing. Definitely an outdoor thing...
Deep frying a turkey yields a tastier less dry bird. It's definitely a death wish if you attempt to do it indoors. The report says he died engulfed in flames, it may not be a joke.
I have had a deep fried turkey into which was stuffed a duck. This combo was extremely delicious but expensive. Americans like everything big and supersized and historically can afford it more so relative to many other areas of the world ( the American dream) . The price of the volume of cooking oil alone to cook a turkey is very high for most countries.
Since this is an unnatural death, I think the police are obligated to investigate to rule in or out anything untowards.

Definitely, but how? I mean, it's got to be a rare occurrence. Most people who die in fires succumb to smoke inhalation, not the actual flames. I can't think of anything in my kitchen that could blow up and engulf me in flames. It's a strange one.

Always a good idea to keep a fire extinguisher handy and replace the stuff inside every 9 years. I was really happy that I had one when..................................
