HEALTH WARNING OF THE WEEK: DON’T BITE BATTERIES
by Hazed
People do dumb things sometimes. Like the man who was shopping for a replacement iPhone battery at an electronics store in China recently.
For some reason, who knows why, he put one off the batteries he was considering buying into his mouth and bit down on it.
Not a good move – the battery exploded! A massive fireball shot out, people recoiled in horror and panic, but incredibly nobody was hurt, not even the biting idiot.
