Decades ago cigarette companies advertised the supposed health benefits of smoking. These days there’s conclusive evidence to show that smoking is actually very harmful to your health. People still smoke, but they are looking for alternatives, like E-cigarettes, which are often touted as a less harmful alternative.
However things like E-cigarettes can have freak accidents. One such accident has cost a man in Germany some of his teeth after the e-cigarette he was smoking blew up in his mouth. Wow! Talk about harmful to your health.
The report from Germany says that this accident happened in Cologne. The young man apparently suffered severe wounds after the e-cigarette he was smoking exploded in his mouth, like a demented cartoon scene in real life. It blew out some of his teeth as well. The 20-year old was smoking his e-cig in an e-cigarette shop in the town center when it happened.
He apparently placed two new parts in his e-cigarette and then inhaled on it to test them. That’s when it exploded, burning his face, and blowing out several teeth. It looks like the parts might have been faulty because news about exploding e-cigarettes isn’t very common. I guess it was a freak accident.
