Guy Blows Up His House While Trying to Kill a Fly with Electric Swatter

Flyswatters have gone 120 years without a major redesign, because they work. And if this guy had just kept it old-school, he'd be fine right now.

A man in his 80s was about to eat dinner at his home in France recently, when he got annoyed by a fly buzzing around his kitchen.

So he grabbed an ELECTRIC flyswatter . . . one of those tennis racquet-style things that zaps them.

But unfortunately, he didn't realize that a nearby gas can in his home had been leaking. And when the bug zapper zapped, it blew up his HOUSE.

The explosion and fire destroyed his kitchen, and damaged his roof. Luckily he survived with only burns to his hands.

It's not clear if the fly made it out alive.
