sderk 1,040 Posted December 13, 2018 Ouch. The teenager in Malaysia was found dead with blood coming out of his ears. Last week, a teenager was electrocuted to death while listening to headphones from a plugged-in mobile phone. Sixteen-year-old Mohd Aidi Azzhar Zahrin was discovered by his mother at their home in the town of Rembau, Malaysia, lying motionless on the floor and cold to the touch, the New Straits Times reports. Blood was pouring from his ear. ...Mohd is at least the fourth person this year to be killed by a headphone-inflicted electric shock... https://www.vice.com/en_au/article/pa5mng/a-16-year-old-has-died-after-being-electrocuted-by-his-headphones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sderk 1,040 Posted December 13, 2018 Sounds like the Pinky and the Brain episode, where Brain is acting out a country music career to send signals to hypnotize his listeners. And take over the whole world. That said, I'm not plugging my phone phone in when I'm plugged in with headphones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sderk 1,040 Posted December 14, 2018 It's simply all just what is on the internet. It justs depends on what you choose to believe I guess. "We reached out to the National Electrical Contractors Association for further information from the electrical engineering aspect of the story, but they told us that not enough details about the incident were publicly available for them to be able to weigh in on the subject." But who cares really. Lot's of yeah, they could be very injured but probably not die. Or, unless the headphones are faulty, etc... Hell, it's Malaysia. Who knows what that kid had in his ears.

Voltaire 4,564 Posted December 14, 2018 If I ran a penitentiary in a state that practices capital punishment, I'd offer his parents $20 for the headphones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
