CCTV footage from a bus in China has captured the moment when one woman saw her phone explode and burst into flames as she held it.
The footage taken from a public bus in the Sichuan province in south west China, shows one of the passengers attempting to replace her mobile phone battery before we see a flash of light and her carrying away a handset which appears to be on fire.
After the phone explodes, bemused passengers are seen rushing to the bus’ exits unaware of where the small explosion has come from.
The owner of the phone then follows, still holding the flaming handset.
According to reports, there were no injuries, but Sichuan authorities were keen to remind the public that they should not buy cheap untested phone batteries when looking to replace their existing ones.
