A Florida man ended up in the hospital after his plan for a hot shave blew up in his face. Emergency workers rushed to the scene of a reported explosion and found a 50-year-old standing in the street with a gash under one eye and white foam on his shirt. The man told them that he’d wanted a hot shave, so had heated a can of shaving foam on his stove. The can exploded into shards of aluminum. “Not a good idea, in my estimation,” said fire Chief Dave Mixson.
