A 15-year-old boy is lucky to have his sight after a phone battery exploded in his face, leaving him with burns on his chest.
Jay Watson, from Brisbane, was tinkering with his iPhone 6 on Sunday night when the battery ignited.
As well as singeing the boys hair, the explosion sprayed battery acid on to his chest.
