BS right?

[negadave]

I got this in an email. I never believe anything, but this especially sounds like BS to me.

>>WOW!! We should all be more careful.
This E-mail message originated from the University of Miami Hospital in Miami , Florida .
Good advice. Shows what a cell phone will do if it is being charged. ........Never do this! Tell all your friends TO UNPLUG THE CHARGER. We usually charge our phones, most of the time during the night, but occasionally while we are driving, we will use the plug in the car charger. Will definitely unplug it in the future.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!!! >>>>

I call :bullshit: on that.

[i bleed green]

I suppose it's possible, that with all that electricity flowing through that something could go haywire. I'll still talk on it with it plugged in.

It's in an e-mail that says "FORWARD THIS TO THE PEOPLE THAT MATTER IN YOUR LIFE!!!".
It's B.S.

As person who is quite prone to electrical shock.... I never had an issue with that, so bullshit on them. I hate those email forwards, I waste more time deleting them then I care to.

You'd be surprised how much time I spend explaining to people that the world is not coming to an end because their email told them it was.

Just like everyone's electronics were going to shut down for Y2K?

I need some verification that the end is near, so I can go out and live it up for my last year on the planet.
