Howling:Burning Jack

In Miracle Day, the non-dying can be killed by burning them completely into dust, so why hasn't anyone done this to Jack yet? Why bothered trapping him in a block of cement and creating massive explosions and stuff when you can incinerate him into dust? But his existence is also fixed...so what happened to his consciousness? If it takes him a long time to gather together, then it would still have been worth it to burn him, yet people don't do it. Certainly disintergrating him into atoms would make it at least extremely troublesome and takes a long time for him to recover. Yet, he was still physically relatively unharmed after travelling through the time vortex unprotected. Jack certainly can't be truly immortal if time is finite, when Jack travels back in time every time he reaches the end of time, there would be infinite copies of Jack at every instance. --222.166.181.234 22:28, November 21, 2011 (UTC)

Jack does seem to have died eventually, in Gridlock. Anyway, the difference between Jack and the category ones is that Jack can heal. The Daleks incinerated him in Journey's End, and Jack just came out of the incinerator unharmed (even his clothes were okay somehow). Same in Utopia-stet radiation instantly turns people into dust, but it seems to have just caused Jack minor discomfort. Containing Jack is much more practical than trying to kill him.Icecreamdif talk to me 05:16, November 22, 2011 (UTC)
