seems pretty rediculous to me
theres only 12v low amps flowing through the cable...the only way would be the transformer screwing up and letting the full 240 through which would fry the phone and then short the circuit preventing further electricity to pass through...PLUS the shell of the phone in contact with the boy would have been plastic which doesnt conduct electricity very well...
doesnt add up to me
