Home and dry! Man cheats death by seconds after walking out of Spanish laundrette moments before tumble dryer explodes in huge fireball

A man cheated death after walking out of a Spanish laundrette just seconds before one of its tumble driers blew up. Footage of the extraordinary incident showed he had only closed the door behind him less than ten seconds before the blast. The explosion sent a ball of fire across the premises into the spot where the man had just been standing after bagging up his clean washing. And it was so strong it smashed all its windows and even ripped the front door off its hinges and caused other damage to the facade. The ground-floor laundrette is at the entrance to an industrial estate in the Galician city of La Coruna. Investigators have concluded the blast was caused by the overheating of flammable fuel in a cigarette lighter which had been left inside a trouser pocket.

That seems a mighty big explosion for a cigarette lighter.
