>Commenters explained that flammable water is common in places where fracking pollutants have contaminated the ground water.

I don't think it's the contaminants from the fracking fluid itself, more that you can get natural gas finding its way into the water supply that creates this (and it can happen naturally even without fracking). The stuff in the fluids that's a problem is mainly a problem because it's toxic, not flammable.
