July 19, 2016 – – LipsigLawyers.com provides information about a man who was severely burned by an exploding e-cigarette. As per NewsPressNow.com, a local Fox station, the victim’s e-cigarette exploded in his pocket seriously injuring him. Many of the man’s co-workers witnessed the explosion and stated that the explosion was louder than when a firecracker is set off. The victim, when asked about the situation, stated that his pocket began to get very hot, and he then heard a hissing sound and saw smoke coming out of his pocket. Shockingly, he reported that he began to see flames coming out of his pocket as well, proving that e-cig explosions can happen very spontaneously and cause significant damage to the users of the devices. The victim sustained severe burns to his inner thigh and groin.
