4. Death By Chemistry
Everyone finds it boring when the delicious flavor of their gum ends and they’re left chewing a mass of tasteless rubber. However, a student in Ukraine discovered a way of dealing with this problem. Vladimir had a habit of dipping his gum in powdered citric acid to give it a sour taste.
However, one fateful day he confused the citric acid with a highly explosive chemical. The chemical mixed with his saliva while he chewed the gum and caused an explosion. It was minor but enough to separate him from his lower jaw. The paramedics could not save him in time and he died. What happened to borrowing sugar from a neighbour?
