Never Use A Cell Phone While Charging by dimejilee(m): 1:44pm On Jun 17, 2006 |
Hello, This look important so I thought I`d better forward it on, One more fear to add to our list, thanks to the internet!!!! This was checked out and yes, it did happen!! Please read! This was also on Pittsburgh's WTAE channel 4 News. Never, ever answer a cell phone while it is being CHARGED!! A few days ago, a person was recharging his cell phone at home. Just at that time a call came 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! |
