Steff Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Lava lamp left on hot stovetop explodes, killing man KENT, Washington (AP) -- A man who placed a lava lamp on a hot stovetop was killed when it exploded and sent a shard of glass into his heart, police said. Philip Quinn, 24, was found dead in his trailer home Sunday night by his parents. "Why on earth he was heating a lava lamp on the stove, we don't know," Kent Police spokesman Paul Petersen said Monday. After the lamp exploded, Quinn apparently stumbled into his bedroom, where he died Sunday afternoon, authorities said. Police found no evidence of drug or alcohol use. http://www.cnn.com/2004/US/11/30/la...h.ap/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KipWellsFan Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 I heard this on my radio alarm clock this morning all the way up in Canada. The exploding lava lamp heard around the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
