The other day in a secondary school in
Kennebunk ( , Maine , USA) unpleasant incident happened . Just in the beginning of the lesson in the pocket of one of the 8 - klasnits fired up the iPhone, but it happened for a reason.
Apple smartphone was in the back pocket of jeans 14 -year-old girl when she sat down at her place in the classroom. Immediately thereafter by loin cotton ladies came and she felt a strong burning sensation . 8 klasnitsa naturally panicked , jerked into a corner , quickly pulled his pants and began to roll on the floor , trying to extinguish the flames , and deciding that it's lit. At this time, fell out of his pocket and smoldering smoking iPhone. Moreover, the assurances of witnesses, there was so much smoke that I had to open the windows and ventilate the area.
Teacher led the boys in the class and had a pupil first aid.
In girls pants were a few scorched holes and smoke were so many that we had to open the window class. We definitely avoided a very serious situation , which contributed to the concerted action of the teacher and students. Their efforts managed to minimize the negative consequences that might otherwise be much more. We are glad that the victim is in order.

Actually , the girl escaped with minor burns loin body and on Monday will be able to return to classes. Causes of fire iPhone is currently being investigated by local fire departments . Comments from Apple has not yet been reported. [NY Daily News]
I would add that the exact model of the smartphone and its condition is not yet known . Remotely judge the reasons of fire too difficult, but certainly not worth taking the device . Indeed, because of this smartphone could be deformed body (remember how easy it is to bend the body of modern iPhone), and with it the shell damaged battery or its just shorted .
This is not the first case of a sudden ignition devices Apple. Thus, in early 2012 exploded battery in the iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 " pulled " directly during the conversation. Naughty and tablets too, including a brand new iPad Air. Sometimes, problems with electrical lead to fatal consequences , so be careful .

Which school was that where students are allowed to keep mobile phones with them during the class? I think it should not be allowed. Students should submit their mobile phones to the teacher when the class is running. Anyways, it is a pity that she got 2nd degree burns. Only if necessary precautions were taken this accident would have never happened.
