Of course this doesnt prove the man was killed by them...

lol. Not a surprise. If you knew nothing about the story and you looked at
the picture of that cell phone, you'd never come to the conclusion that it
exploded. You'd think that someone took a blow torch to it as it was simply
melted.

The South Korean man whose death is being blamed on an exploding cellphone
battery had injuries too extensive to be consistent with that theory,
medical examiners say.

Could it have been the 16 ton weight dropped on his head?
