Cell Phone - Fact or Fiction?????

Message Title: DANGER WITH CELL PHONES

Message:

I do this all the time! I guess I won't be doing it ANY more !

A few days ago, a person was recharging 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. After a few seconds electricity flowed into the cell phone unrestrained 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. Never use the cell phone while it is hooked to the electrical outlet! If you are charging the cell phone and a call comes in, unplug it from the charger and outlet.






FORWARD THIS TO THE PEOPLE THAT MATTER IN YOUR LIFE!!!!


OK So if you got this email - you're not alone - it is a very popular email forwarded by well wishing friends that has now become an online urban legend. So is it true you ask? In short NO, these pictures are actually not even related to the stories - however there have been incidences of fires caused by faulty batteries that were not the original manufacturer's batteries - these may have triggered the story but even in these cases, it had nothing to do with speaking on the phone with the charger connected - so sorry guys -the myth has been busted - so ho ahead and use that phone - just make sure that yo are using the original manufacturer's battery.
