What a STEEMY explosion!
Today, my day started like any other normal day. I woke up and got ready for work but the best part was the bus ride! We are not allowed to drive to work with our own vehicles and also we may not take a phone which has a camera to work - it is a security issue.
There I was, sitting on the bus along with about 15 colleagues and I wanted to check my updates on STEEMIT, when suddenly my phone started bulging in my hand.
It exploded!
Luckily, after swelling up like it has some kind of allergy, the top part is where the explosion happened, away from my hand, so no injuries today. It was just sparks and smoke everywhere!
I cannot believe that such a small device can make so much smoke and I've never seen people moving so fast. It was funny and scary at the same time. The bus driver had to pull over beside the road so that I can bury my phone in the sand.
After the short funeral, I got back into the bus and THAT was the topic of discussion at work today.
I don't know how one can prevent this from happening, but the lesson sure is not to mess around on STEEMIT with a cheap phone that can't handle the quality of STEEMIT! LOL!
With re recent amount of cellphone I would be not surprise if it starts to be forbidden to use on airplanes, and start being used in terrorist attacks lol
