Dude nearly blew his face off!

Thankfully, everyone appears to be fine.

Why did it blow up?

I dunno 🤷‍♂️

But the real question we're all wondering is why the heck did he bite the battery in the first place?

And this explanation from the lady next to him in the video makes it all 2000% less clear:

"I'm the person involved," she wrote. "…I haven't been disfigured; thanks for your concern. He didn't [bite the battery] because he wanted to test its authenticity; actually my partner just has the habit of putting things into his mouth and nibbling on them. I'm okay, just my bangs were burnt a little bit. My first reaction was ‘Are my eyebrows okay?'"

Oh, so the guy just put a random phone battery into his mouth and bit down cuz he likes to nibble on stuff. Super cool. Makes total sense.
