Cell Phone charger cant take your life

I recently circulated an email in reply to another email which said "Cell Phone charger can take your life" if you are talking while charging the phone.

 
The possibility of dying with a charger plugged in is 1 in 1,00,000 or 10 lacs. If you really put your brains in reading and getting worried then please put some time in analysing how can you get a shock.

The output from the Charger of a cell phone is in single digit volts. The adapter receives 240 V of current from the switch board and passes on just 3-5 V of current to the cell phone to charge(Check output on your Charger). Even if you directly touch the pin of the cell phone you will not get any sensation of current as that much can be easily absorbed by our body.

The only possibility is the defective adapter which directly gets the power to the pin from the switchboard. Mostly in case of mis-wiring. Even in that case, the wire would burn immediately as it cant carry tht much capacity of power and even if it does'nt burn, you will never never never fall with a Thud and DIE!!!!

The only chance could be a defective battery. If the battery leaks and burns severe injuries could occur. However, a battery can burn even if u r talking for long time on phone. Basically when it gets heated. 

So dont worry. You can't lose your life so easily.

Thank You for reading.
