World China: A Chinese man menaced by exploding cigarette.

[tom_mai78101]

A man has had his fingers blown off by an exploding “China” brand cigarette, providing the latest evidence of the explosive growth in Chinese product quality.

The Zhejiang province grocer lit up only to have the cigarette explode in his fingers.
Pictures show the man hospitalised with severe injuries to his fingers, with some reports saying his fingers were “blown off” by the force of the explosion.

As a supposed luxury brand, just how the cigarettes attained their explosive properties is not known (similar incidents with cheaper brands now scarcely warrant mention). Authorities are said to be investigating.

This does not really sound legit. The only common explosive that could do that is TATP and none of the chemicals involved that are used to make TATP are involved in making cigarettes. Plus to do that the whole cigarette would have to be filled with it. This is report is either fake or he got his cigarette from someone who doesn't like him, lol.

Probably chinese anti-smoking propaganda.

Maybe it was an E-Cigarette? I heard of somebody being hurt by one of these exploding because the batteries he used were of pretty bad quality and exploded.
