Three Chinese Set on Fire
Literally. Three men drove up to an intersection near Tienanmen Square in Beijing and set themselves alight. Two were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. They were reported to have personal grievances, but apparently this happens pretty often. The guards in Tienanmen Square usually have fire extinguishers next to their feet.

if setting yourself on fire is a regular thing, is it a symbol of something, or just an easy way to get attention?
