He was sleeping next to it mobile of the one he was charging, when the device exploded, injuring his face and catching the bed mattress on fire.
Everything happened in the early morning, while the young man was sleeping and at the same time charging his mobile phone.
The 24-year-old who experienced this shocking event, spoke today (08.12.2024) on the show “You still haven’t seen anything” on Mega.
“Like every night, I had put my mobile phone next to me to listen to an audiobook. At that time I was sleeping,” he initially said.
“Unintentionally I had found myself on the mobile phone, my cheek on the mobile phone. The ignition that happened was burning me, then it was burning my face because the battery threw liquid on my face, it was like they threw acid on me,” he described, and as he noted, he ran straight to the shower to relieve the burn.
“I ran and got under the shower and then I went and called my mother. mother fire! Then I threw a blanket over me, extinguished it, threw the covers over and put out the fire”, he emphasized and added that he always has his mobile phone next to him.
“I’ve been doing this for years, I listen to it and sleep like that. I was given anti-tetanus serum, antibiotics and will definitely need a plastic surgeon,” he concluded.
The 24-year-old’s mother spoke last Friday on the Open’s morning show, saying that if the fire hadn’t stopped, everything would have burned. She noted that at around 5 in the morning the young man came to her room saying that they had caught fire. He threw the covers over and quickly managed to put it out.
And he added that “the charger was from the company – as he had received it together with the mobile”.
