The only way that could happen is if you were being tanned with microwaves, and that would probably kill you before your pad could catch on fire.
That said, there was a fire in a tanning bed when a man was inside, but that was more than likely a faulty bed and it wasn't the man or anything he was wearing that caught fire.
You're more likely to get an infection from a previously used tanning bed than having your pad catch on fire, but, that's another story. [ Smartone's advice column | Ask Smartone A Question ]
