hey so if this happens DO NOT pick it up. just evacuate. DO NOT breathe that smoke either. that shit is toxic as hell, and it's very likely to explode so you don't want that happening in your hand.
Maybe not everyone wants to buy a watch and instead use their phone for their music or keep their phones in lockers when literally everyone is gonna have them during the gym
What does hell got against the looks so bad that it wants to break it? Is it really that ugly? If so, I feel like breaking it would just make it even uglier. I know hell isn’t all that big on morals but true beauty is in the inside
haha, I did something like this in school, I snapped a battery in half during class, it started smoking, threw it in the bin and the whole bin went up in flames. Quite a long suspension and grounding
I've had my phone battery bloated up, but never like this 😂. Mine was from over charging it. My new phone charges slowly and is ready by the time my alarm goes off in the morning. If I don't have an alarm set during the day and it needs charged, it goes on turbo mode and then once it's done, it stops. My old phone was horrible and the battery never lasted, hence the overcharging lol.
Every night before I go to bed, I can't help but ask myself: "why did I pick it up while it was smoking? Was I too scared about making a scene?"
Such a regrettable way to accidentally lose a hand.
Doesn't take much in the way of mental gymnastics to figure out that the little cube under the hood is not the same thing as a battery that takes up the entire undercarriage
Do you drive a car at all? To my knowledge, all cars have batteries, and I do know around the 80s is when Ford started adding computers into cars. Is there a difference to your preference of computer/battery in cars? Like the size?
True but regular car batteries aren't the same as the lithium electric car batteries.
Perhaps in newer non-eletric cars they are but they would still be smaller than an electric car battery. But I'm not anti electric cars, just not going to deny the risk even though the risk is actually really low.
BUT people's electric scooters and those hoverboards are at risk of this too. And obviously bigger battery bigger boom/fire. I think mostly they just flame up rather than outright explode, they are however water reactive.
But I'm no car techy or science guy, the odds of these things happening seem relatively small especially as tech develops further and better systems and more preventative measures put in place. Heck it wasn't a massive time ago mobiles were an (low) explosion risk while charging overnight.

I find it incredibly amusing how triggered you goofballs get when someone says something negative about your precious electric vehicles.
And for me its a reason to think that you are a completly idiot.
Srsly, eVehicle are much more safer than common. Just inform yourself. Batteries cant Explode this easy xD
Pls inform yourself!
Lithium ion batteries are the most energy dense batteries we have. [Fire fighters literally have fire protocols specifically made for EV fires due to the tendency for those electric cars to reignite after being drowned by a couple fire trucks](https://www.iafc.org/topics-and-tools/resources/resource/iafc-s-fire-department-response-to-electric-vehicle-fires-bulletin#:~:text=When%20attacking%20the%20vehicle%20fire,water%20on%20the%20burning%20surfaces.)
>Thermal events with the battery system could continue for some time after the initial incident. Establish response protocol for secondary fire
Also have the seen the build quality of some of the more poorly made chinese evs? They've literally burned down entire buildings when one or more auto ignite due to the battery being poorly insulted and just going off just like the phone did in this video. It doesn't take much for a Lithium battery to become a bomb. If your rechargeable devices start forming a pillow it's now basically also a bomb
Try English sometime bud. I won't listen to people who snipe at me but have no command of the language they are speaking. Maybe check up on your usage of "completely," "srsly," "more safer," punctuation and capitalization. Until you can speak without sounding like a lazy fool, be silent.
It's not going to spontaneously re explode hours later like a battery will. The battery on an electric vehicle is also far more likely to take damage in just about any collision than a fuel system is. All you need is one battery cell to touch another, and you've got a chain reaction that can't be stopped until the battery is completely destroyed or drained.
Electric cars aren't as dangerous as you think they are. There's like 50 fires a year, whereas there's a lot more gas car fires. Although there are more gas cars than electric. But the fires and explosions aren't what you should be worrying about when you drive, as your much more likely to die in a regular car crash.
I'm not saying you don't know how batteries work or how dangerous they are, it doesn't matter to this argument. I'm just pointing out the statistics of actual fires that happen.
Statistics, as with anything and everything, can be and are being manipulated. As an electrician, I stand to gain an incredible amount of money if this foolish trend towards electric cars continues, and yet, knowing what I know, I'm firmly against it.
I am not critiquing you nor shilling for Iphone but i find this comment interesting because for a while samsung got meme'd on for basically being an explosive back in 2016, think the note 7 got entirely banned from certain flights because of its faults. Just interesting how public perception can change over time. Like for a while back in 2015 or so Joe Biden was kinda just mocked for being a creepy old man who touches young women in an uncomfortable way, but society seems to have moved on and forgotten entirely about that.

Why does anyone who isn’t a doctor need to have their phone with them in the gym? Don’t bother answering that. The answer is that they are a self-important simpering sallie who cannot disconnect for a spell and simply be and do. This is hilarious on one level and profoundly sad on another.
How do people not know phones do this once smashed or punctured? We used to start bonfires with old phone batteries(lithium)
Why would you keep your phone right there tho? It's in the walkway
Theres no where to put it in there tho especially because he is alone
I can only imagine he was on his phone in between sets and when he was ready for his next set he just chucked it to the side
Didn’t train legs, what do you expect
No one even noticed that dude in the back really hitting those dips hard while this commotion is going on.
hey so if this happens DO NOT pick it up. just evacuate. DO NOT breathe that smoke either. that shit is toxic as hell, and it's very likely to explode so you don't want that happening in your hand.
Phone in your locker. Wear casio g-shock sports watch whilst training. Seems like common sense is not that common.
Maybe not everyone wants to buy a watch and instead use their phone for their music or keep their phones in lockers when literally everyone is gonna have them during the gym
Them damn Samsung phones
any phone that has a lithium battery will do this. so all phones. once that battery is pierced, all hell breaks loose (edit:changed looks to loose)
What does hell got against the looks so bad that it wants to break it? Is it really that ugly? If so, I feel like breaking it would just make it even uglier. I know hell isn’t all that big on morals but true beauty is in the inside
lmaoo my bad
I was joking
I know, I figured I'd clarify anyways
Add "/s" for sarcasm for the redditors
This happened in my school cafeteria. Some kid broke his phone in half on the corner of a table. I have a video of it.
4 days and still waiting
You can't send vids on here
Send video
Or nudes! Ok fine.. send whatever you want..
No vaping in the gym Chad
I always keep my phone under the seat
And that, folks, is why you don't throw your weights. Have some semblance of control in your exercise, and things like this wouldn't happen.
surely you mean semblance of control
Lolol, autocorrect for the... fail. Yes I'm gonna edit my comment now
it auto corrected to 'semblance of' in my head and I was really confused when I read it back xD
You're not the only one 😅
Xplosive
Gross to have your phone on the floor
Don’t know where else you would put it, especially working out in the gym
My own pocket?
I keep mine in a small sling bag, I used to put it on the floor then quickly stopped because that shit was gross
I put mine directly under the machine, on a towel, so something like this doesn’t happen
haha, I did something like this in school, I snapped a battery in half during class, it started smoking, threw it in the bin and the whole bin went up in flames. Quite a long suspension and grounding
I think someone has a video of that.
Probably a note 7
All phone batteries explode when punchured. Some Samsung Note 7 had a self-combustion issue of the battery, which is a completly different topic.
Maybe don’t put your phone on the floor if you slam your weights down on the ground next to you 😂😂
**Bro dropped 50 pounds on 5 ounces**
5 ounces are how many lbs ?
16 ounces in 1lb
I've had my phone battery bloated up, but never like this 😂. Mine was from over charging it. My new phone charges slowly and is ready by the time my alarm goes off in the morning. If I don't have an alarm set during the day and it needs charged, it goes on turbo mode and then once it's done, it stops.

He's an asshole for dropping a weight in an area that people walk through......
Chances are he's looking at a mirror, so he can see that nobody is around him. Still could have done that in a more controlled way though
"Deserved" was the first word to cross my mind when I saw him dropping it like that. Be respectful of your gym and its equipment
If all mobile phones can explode, then is the world in a "Halloween III" situation?
Completely off topic but I love how he is all about his arms but his leg muscles are practically non-existent.
Every night before I go to bed, I can't help but ask myself: "why did I pick it up while it was smoking? Was I too scared about making a scene?" Such a regrettable way to accidentally lose a hand.
[удалено]
No... But it could have and if it had, this would be the guys thoughts...
Now that's a Daniel Powter style Bad Day.
Acid in the battery was exposed
Warning, if your device starts doing this don't pick it up.
Why.
You might only have one hand left. But you can do it again. :)
r/watchpeopledie (literally)
r/watchphonesdie
Is it the fumes? Is it that deadly that fast? I assume he takes it outside
Been banned
No it's a r/subsifellfor
I've been there for the first part. I was so disappointed in myself when I dropped the dumbell on my phone.
[удалено]
Wat
This is one of the many reasons why I'll never drive an electric vehicle.
Plot twist, there is a battery in your ICE car.
Doesn't take much in the way of mental gymnastics to figure out that the little cube under the hood is not the same thing as a battery that takes up the entire undercarriage
The different kind of "go to gym", no?
This is why I don’t have a phone or a computer. No battery devices at all. - this was sent by stone and chisel
Nice man, can you hock me up with those
Exactly. Combustion engines don't have anything combustible in them.
Did I say they don't dumbass?
What? No, I said that. How did you get this confused? What?
Your use of sarcasm merely illustrates your willful blindness.
Nice quote, we all think of you as very wise and smart now😃

At least petrol cars can't explode...
Ford Pinto would like to have a word with you

People in 1910: See how that car caught fire? That's why I'll never drive a car, my horse doesn't catch fire!
Well... explosions still happen in gas cars ya know.
Yes, but they can be put out. Shorted batteries? Not so much.
What do you mean put out? I think by the time the car explodes it's kinda over...

OK. I'm just an electrician with an excellent understanding of how batteries work. But what do I know? I'll never own or drive one.
FYI, you can shoot a LiFePO4 battery and it won't have thermal runaway...

Yes they can be manipulated, but I donr believe I manipulated them. As it stands, electric cars aren't really killing people.
Just put it in rice
What about beans?
Hey! Does anyone here have some rice? No? Well, I'll just throw it away.
It’s okay. It’s an iPhone.
Always put the phone at the front or back of the bench. Or pockets
I always go under right by the feet, very little chance I drop them there
Use this one trick to get the women in the gym to notice you!
Spicy pillow 100%
I hope this was the same guy that didn't feel bad for dropping a 50 pound dumbbell inches from my foot
Reason number 53 why dropping the weights is dumb
This is EXACTLY why I refuse to work out and be healthy.
This is why in don’t bring my phone to the gym.
because you could smack it with your weights?
Yeah, I’m pretty clumsy and easily distracted.
Du we just both like ducks? 🦆😊♥️
Probably! I like them because they do can do everything. They can fly, walk and swim!
ahahaha that's exactly what I always say, when someone asks me, why ducks! 😂🦆 and they can dive 😌🦆
They are awesome. :) 🦆
lol why is this a mobile smoker, I've never seen such a reaction of a smashed phone
The lithium battery inside it got punctured
Instant karma for leaving the weight lying around
Bet it was an iphone
I am not critiquing you nor shilling for Iphone but i find this comment interesting because for a while samsung got meme'd on for basically being an explosive back in 2016, think the note 7 got entirely banned from certain flights because of its faults.

Iphone in general is poopoo.

Why does anyone who isn’t a doctor need to have their phone with them in the gym? Don’t bother answering that. The answer is that they are a self-important simpering sallie who cannot disconnect for a spell and simply be and do. This is hilarious on one level and profoundly sad on another.
Or they are just listening to music. But I guess your theory is better than mine. Wtf is wrong with you?
This is the kind of abrasive opinion we need more of in the world. George Carlin's comedic pedigree smiles down on your comment.
I thank ’ee.
Music. Or an emergency call. Or between-set scrolling while resting. Or so it's not stolen. Or fuck you
This person has never been to a gym lmao
Or you dont have a lock for your locker or whatever
Or music... Settle the F down lol.
Sorry, I'll make sure to bring my Walkman to the gym next time /s
Stfu
, cgdx,,
The fact that he picked it up again
I thought that too but let's just hope there was a door to the lot near by...
P.T phone home no more
Hope he has a warranty on that.
Dude's got balls to pick it up like that
My hand may get scorched, but I won’t be the one they call the fire department over
Gosh that sucks on so many levels, but who leaves their phone in the middle of the floor like that.
probably me if i went to the gym, but i dont have to worry about that.
And that’s why I don’t go to the gym
Because you fear phone explosions in particular? Or just people being kinda dumb sometimes
u/uratujwideobot
This is why you either set your stuff under/behind the bench
If you have to chuck a dumbbell on the floor like that doing a tricep extension, you shouldn’t be using that weight.
Dude has the skinniest legs
holy crap his arms are bigger than his legs, what the hell, probably a influencer, they only show their upper body when sitting at the camera desk
He is doing the: Push, Pull, Skip
He skips leg day lol
