Young Boy Gets His Finger Blown Off And Blinded In One Eye After His Phone Exploded While Charging

A boy was found covered in blood after his mobile phone suddenly exploded while charging it at his home in China 

 Apparently, the blast was so strong that 12-year-old Meng Jisu, who was reaching for the phone, had his right index finger ripped off right away and was left blinded in the right eye. 

He was saved by a five-hour operation and is being treated in the hospital, according Chinese media

 The mobile phone in question is said to be a Hua Tang VT-V59, which is made in China. 

 It is understood that the blast blew off Jisu’s right index finger right away. It also sent sharp pieces of plastic into his face, which damaged his right eyeball.X-ray pictures showed his palm and a number of other digits on his right hand were also left heavily wounded after the explosion. 

 Jisu’s elder sister told Pear Video, a Chinese video platform, that she heard a loud bang and was shocked to see her brother covered in blood. 

 Lan Tianbing, the chief physician at the local People’s Hospital, said the boy’s ‘shredded’ index finger was not brought along with him. But he said it was not possible to reattach the finger. 

 The doctors  carried out skin graft on his right forearm, reattached the blood vessels of his thumb, middle finger and ring finger onto his right hand.The doctors estimated that a 98 per cent of Jisu’s hand would regain full function in the future.The boy’s mother said the Hua Tang mobile phone was about two years old, and was handed down to her son after she bought himself a new smartphone. 

 Hua Tang mobile company has not responded in regarding to the incident.
