OMG - I was JUST about to post that -- it is horrifying. His head is completely on fire and he is bald after.

I wonder if he was wearing a wig or extensions to begin with. Seemingly, a wig may have protected his scalp a for a few seconds and could have been ripped off of his head.

Just horrifying!

I never saw this before. Shocking. But, did MJ's hair grow back over time?

I don't know. He allegedly wore wigs and had little hair.

Yea - you can see a clear bald spot on the top of his head when he is walking away at the end. And that appears to be his scalp and not some wig.

Also, the flame appears to go out and turn into white smoke right before the people mob him. It is almost as if someone sprayed him with a fire exting.

I saw this on the news today. I NEVER thought we should see this footage!! I never knew how BAD this was until now! I was horrified when I saw this on the TV!

Honestly, I dont really care if he wears a wig or not because like Dolly Parton and Tina Turner wear wigs and god only knows who else does.

didn't that derm doctor state on LK Live that Michael underwent treatments that involved balloons placed underneath his skin to stetch his scalp whereby they then cutoff the excess skin gained and the newly stretched skin now covers the area with hair...or err whatever? I think this is a common treatment for burn victims.

http://www.turningwhite.com/

I am of the opinion that while Michael was undergoing years of ridicule for 'bleaching himself white' and he choose to remain silent for so long, he could have taken another route by educating others of this skin disorder. I recall when 'news' broke of the disorder it wasn't of his own volition but rather that of 'inquiring minds want to know' and when he finally said 'yes', well, sadly, the vast were and remained non-believers.

anyways...my belief then and now is that there is only so much one man can do and Michael did a hella f'kin lot.

I find interesting how news of his philanthropy now spreads as internet wildfire posthumously.

Oh I was watching EXTRA tonight and they said that there might be a video of Michael's death!

Jackson's Death Caught on Tape?!
Posted by ExtraTV Staff on July 15, 2009 10:23 AM

It's been reported that a home security camera captured Michael Jackson's final moments in the bedroom of his rented L.A. mansion.

The secret video had mysteriously vanished before investigators obtained their first search warrant, according to the National Enquirer.

The video may show his inner circle "sanitizing" the death scene -- 30 minutes before 911 was called.
