Aw, come on: Apple iPhone spontaneously combusts aboard flight in Australia

Posted on by

This is just a weird story:

“An Apple iPhone spontaneously began smoking and emitting a red glow while aboard an airplane in Australia. Passengers aboard Regional Express flight ZL319 were welcomed to their destination in Sydney, Australia on Friday by a frightening ordeal. According to the airline, a passenger’s iPhone began “emitting a significant amount of dense smoke” shortly after the flight landed, and the smoke was accompanied by a red glow.” (from Bioy Genius Report)

  2. This is not the first such problem with an Apple mobile device, as in 2009 there were several cases reported of iPhones and iPods overheating and in some cases suffering damage.However, this appears to be a relatively isolated incident with the 18-month old iPhone 4 and there has been no indication of any problems with the recently-launched iPhone 4S.
