If ever there was a reason to give up smoking, this would be it …

When a 31 year male security guard riding his motorcycle to work, lit up his third cigarette for the trip he got more puff than he expected.

The cigarette, purchased from a vendor near to the man’s house, ’exploded’ in his mouth causing him to lose five front teeth and receive 51 stitches. The man, a smoker since his school days, has vowed to quit smoking but will seek compensation from the cigarette company.

Police investigating the incident have assessed the man’s motorcycle and found no problems with leaking fumes. The cigarette manufacturer has said that they don’t put explosive material in their products.
