Danger of Using Your Mobile Phone While Charging (PHOTOS)
Majory Mudenda
A few days ago, a guy was charging his mobile phone at home. Just at that time a call came in and he answered it with the charging Instrument still connected to the outlet.
Shortly electricity flowed into the cell phone unrestrained (maybe there was current fluctuation) and the young man was thrown to the floor with a heavy thud. As you can see, the phone actually exploded.
His parents rushed to the room only to find him unconscious, with a weak heartbeat and burnt fingers. He was rushed to the nearby hospital, but was pronounced dead on arrival.Cell phones are a very useful modern invention. However, we must be aware that it can also be an instrument of death if not handled with care.
Never use the cell phone while it is hooked to the charger!
If you are charging the cell phone and a call comes in, unplug it from the charger before answering the call.

Even if those pictures appeared on internet last year, matters less. Otherwise, the point behind the behind this news is doing things with a safety conscious mind.
