A young man ended up terribly injured after his vape pen exploded in his mouth. Andrew Hall, from Pocatello, Idaho, went on to share the graphic photos of his experience on social media to make the public aware about the risks of e-cigarette smoking.

 

 

Andrew’s e-cigarette malfunctioned and blew up in his face when he was getting ready for work on Saturday morning. As a result, he not only suffered second degree burns but also lost at least seven teeth. His condition was so bad that he had to be admitted to intensive care.

 

 

The terrible incident has not led Andrew to complete oppose vaping. He clarified that he posted his photos only to warn people of dangerous possibilities.
