Web surfing German blows up own flat

Quote:

A web-surfing German with an serious bug problem completely decimated his flat when a spark from his computer ignited fumes from several cans of industrial-strength insect spray, Ananova reports.

Walter Mueller, 36, from Schleswig-Holstein, closed the windows of his apartment, set about the six-legged critters with said spray, and then sat down for a quick surf. The resulting blast blew out all the windows, throwing debris up to 100 metres. Several neighbouring flats were also damaged although no-one – Mueller included – was seriously hurt.

The report names neither the species of insect involved in the catastrophe, nor the make of computer responsible.

Looks like the bugs got the last laugh. That'll teach him to access the world wide web from the convenience of his own home!

Foreigner pwned!
