A man looking to get his iPhone battery replaced at a Chinese electronics store decided to bite the battery to somehow test its authenticity. The battery promptly exploded.

Video of the incident captured by a CCTV camera has been posted on miaopai.com and viewed over four million times, reports Taiwan News. It's likely that the man's teeth ruptured the battery's casing causing it to burst into a massive ball of fire.

Amazingly, no one was hurt in this incident. Take a look at the video below!

It's unclear if the customer was looking to exchange his battery due to Apple's slowdown of devices with degraded batteries. We recommend taking your iPhone to Apple to have an authorized technician replace its battery for $29. If you can't have Apple perform the replacement for whatever reason (timing, jailbreak, location, etc), you can find links to purchase replacement batteries below. Please don't bite them!

You guys are all dumb asses. All Apple Batteries are made from China. The only difference between Apples and cheap batteries is that Apple puts their’s through more Quality Control.

I ordered a new replacement battery for iphone 6 from gearbest |"ROMOSS IP06 1810mAh Rechargeable Battery for iPhone 6" Can anyone tell me if they are any good?

Don’t buy third-party batteries

Serves idiots right for having their phones serviced by cheap third-party businesses, and using after market batteries far from OEM's quality. Tasty meal BTW lmao. First, Apple offers 1 year of warranty, they won't pry a single battery out but rather give you a full phone replacement. Secondly, you get the correct battery either done by Apple itself, or an AASP no problem at all. Thirdly, if you've got a jailbreak, tell them to keep your iOS for whatever reasons (make your case solid) and they'll keep it. Mileage varies from store to store, do some research and you could find one - this from a former Apple Store technician I talked to recently about their policies and what can customers do about it. Yep, got a battery replacement done by an AASP a couple weeks ago, still on iOS 10.2 and jailbroken on my older iPhone 6 :D

Or people this bottomlessly stupid will be owned for the stupidest things that do, but for this to serve him right just because he probably didn't know about the outcome of third party products? That's kind of harsh because it really can kill.

Clearly it was a Samsung battery.

battery does not blow up if its not connected to any power source. else people will be using battery instead of grenades.

It will explode, smart guy. It’s full of electricity because guess what, IT’S A BATTERY. Just try that at home.

The battery might explode even if there's no wire connection. It happend to me when i changed my iphone 6 battery. It sparked a couple time when i pulled the battery from the tray. I was unlucky that week. A few days later apple offered new battery change for $29. 😂 For$29, i would rather let apple tech guy to do it. 🙄

you must be some battery expert. lithium reacts very rapidly when exposed to moisture, like saliva or water. this is why you never puncture lithium battery packs

rexoreign - January 24, 2018 at 11:14am

yes smart guy i tried it at home and it did not explode. i just did not bite it instead i used a hammer. it only got stretched and big did not explode. maybe charge the battery and do it and that might happen. why don't you try it?

It’s not like the battery is made of gold. Moron.
