Here we have yet another instance of an exploding iPhone, and this one does look like it has been severely damaged. Really, what else can you say, that is one messed up iPhone, but at the same time I am glad that it was not mine.
Anyway, according to the details, nothing was going on in terms of funny business. Instead it seems as if the phone just burnt up while playing. Here are the details straight from the person who was on the scene.
I was at a fraternity house hanging out one night. One of my friends had his iPhone plugged into the speakers so we could have music. We had the usual speaker system, a receiver and some speakers. I was standing near the receiver when All the sudden the iphone cut off and started to smoke. The room filled up with what must have been hazardous smoke. After picking up the iPhone that was still extremely hot, the entire battery had been ejected from the phone and was sitting on the floor. The house smelled like burning electronics for the rest of the night and the iPhone left a square-ish burn mark on the table it was sitting on.
