This bizarre footage shows the moment a man was spotted casually wandering the streets of New York while ON FIRE.

Video posted online captured the victim engulfed in flames - but apparently unaware he was in any danger.

A bystander approached the man and asked: "Are you OK? Are you good?"

But the man says nothing in response, and calmly continues to remove his burning clothes and walk away.

According DNAinfo, which first reported the incident, firefighters and police were called but by the time they arrived the man had disappeared.

Fire investigators returned to the street in Brooklyn the next day and discovered the man's identity, and that he had been taken to hospital with severe burns by his family.

He had been apparently smoking crack cocaine and accidentally set himself on fire after putting a burning lighter into his pocket.

But he then managed to walk home and fall asleep.

It was only when he awoke the next morning that relatives saw he was badly burned and took him to hospital.

He remains in a stable condition, according to DNAinfo.
