HAZE Posted December 1 Report Share Posted December 1 SEATTLE (Reuters) - A Washington state man who placed a lava lamp on a hot stove died when the lamp exploded and a glass shard pierced his heart, police said on Tuesday. Phillip Quinn, 24, was found dead in his trailer home on Sunday night in Kent, about 15 miles south of Seattle. "There appeared to have been an explosion that was centered on the stove top. There were glass fragments all over, embedded in the walls," said Paul Petersen, a Kent police spokesman. A lava lamp features blobs of wax in liquid that rise and fall in a container when heated by a bulb at the base of the lamp. Quinn was probably standing in front of the lamp when it exploded, then stumbled into his bedroom and died, Petersen said, citing a medical examiner's report. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=573&ncid=757&e=1&u=/nm/20041201/od_nm/odd_lavalamp_dc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therunner Posted December 1 Report Share Posted December 1 It's amazing the way how simple stupidity erases people from the planet. This guy saw no harm in watching his lava lamp on the stove. He probably broke the base that held the bulb and smoked a fatty and wanted to watch the thing with oohh's and ahh's but instead is now dead as fuck. I am pretty sure that the light bulbs used on lava lamps are 15watts; not very powerful at all. And this tool puts the thing directly on a stove - fucking moron.
