CELL PHONE BEWARE


Don't Answer A
Charging Cell Phone?

3-14-8

Note - Snopes suggests this may not be entirely true and could be a re-telling of the true story of potentially explosive or flammable cell phone batteries. Snopes maintains there is no known or general danger of electrocution from answering a charging cell phone -ed

A few days ago, a person was recharging his cell phone at home.

Just at that time a call came in and he answered it with the instrument still connected to the outlet.









After a few seconds electricity flowed into the cell phone unrestrained and the young man was thrown to the ground with a heavy thud.


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.

Never use the cell phone while it is hooked to the electrical outlet!
