According to the Daily Mail, a romantic candlelight bath nearly killed a young couple who were eventually rescued by a cat.
The 19-year-old Kunzhou girl, Ayla Good, suffered second-degree burns on both legs in a terrible explosion, triggering an explosion in a leaked deodorant jar and candles placed next to the bath.
Good posted the terrible experience on social media to warn others, and her post was retweeted nearly 400 times.
"I just wanted to tell you what an accident would happen if the seemingly harmless daily items were mixed together in the wrong way. Firefighters also said they had never seen anything like this in their 28-year career. The police said it was a 1/1000000 chance. Investigators said, "We accidentally created the perfect storm and I don't want anyone else to experience what I'm going through."
On June 20, Good and her boyfriend, Will, were enjoying a bath in a flat in Mount Gravatt East, southeast of Brisbane, without realizing that the deodorant had leaked out and spread through the house.
Good came out of the bathtub because her cat, Winter, was meowing outside the bathroom.
"the deodorant leaked out and the room was full of hot air. When I got up and opened the door, oxygen began to flow fully, mixed with the lighted candles and exploded. The whole bathroom was lit. The ceiling blew up, the metal bars bent, the explosion was loud, and the heat wave felt unspeakable. "
The bathroom ceiling was also badly damaged in the explosion. "there was steam in the bathroom," firefighter Damien Atkins said. "all we needed was oxygen from opening the bathroom door."
Will wasn't hurt, but Winter's hair was burned.
Good was the worst injured. "my chance of doing a skin graft to repair my leg is 50. It depends on whether the burns get worse or if they are infected. What scares me is that if Winter didn't scream and I didn't get out of the bathroom, we might have to stay in there for 20 or 30 minutes, and then the deodorant would leak more and trigger a bigger explosion. Then we may not be able to escape. "
Good said it would take weeks for her to recover.
"it is only in this way that the fragility of life can be revealed. I'm afraid to go to the bathroom, to hear smoke alarms, to see fire-like light. I hope this doesn't happen to anyone else. "
