Interesting.

Not doubting it, but what caused his ear to bleed, the pop?
I barely see any glass gone off the screen and his ear is pretty torn up.

It almost looks like an "I hit my phone with a small hammer then smashed it against my ear to potentially sue Motorola and reach a settlement" incident than an explosion...

Hopefully the investigation will shade some light on that one, just like ol boy with the Bugatti that drove off the highway into lake in East Texas. He said that there was a flock of birds that flew into the windshield of the car an that's why he drove off the road. A day later the youtube video surfaced...no flock of birds lmao

Cant wait to see how this one unravels.

I knew it! Anything named droid has to be an evil extension of Skynet. Humanity rise up against the machine and join me in delivering a fatal blow to technology eveywhere.

P.S. Ignore the fact that I wrote this using a smart phone (it's wasn't a droid though)

There's not much in a cellphone that could explode except for the battery. They said the battery was OK, so I call "I'm gonna gets my money" on this one.

Or....The guy is a Cyborg. The Droids and the Cyborgs have been warring for years.

My iPhone has NEVER exploded and mangled my ear. Just sayin'.
