On November 30, 2004, a lava lamp explosion in Kent, Washington killed a 24 year-old man. How did this lava lamp death occur? The man had decided to heat his lamp on his own home stove! And so, the lava lamp explodes, rocketing a shard of glass into the man’s heart. He was killed almost instantly. The police reported that he was not under the influence of any drugs or alcohol. No one can say for sure why he did it.
But don’t worry, your lava lamp is not going to explode, just don’t heat it with anything but the light bulb designated for use with your lava lamp.
