A man suffered scalds as a thermos flask exploded in his hand in northern China.

Shocking CCTV footage filmed in the city of Taiyuan in Shanxi Province on June 18, shows a thermos flask suddenly exploding in a man's hand after being shaken repeatedly.

According to reports, the man added a descaling agent and hot water into the flask before tightly closing the lid and shaking it.

Experts explained that the descaling agent's main component, calcium oxide, reacts violently with water, posing a risk of explosion.
