A man from Tampa, Florida claims one of his Apple AirPods blew up while he was at the gym.According to WFLA, Jason Colon was listening to dance music at an LA Fitness when the right side of the wireless earphones started emitting white smoke. Colon decided to leave it on a piece of workout equipment and seek help, but when he returned, the earphone apparently was good as gone. "It was already popped. I didn’t see it happen, but I mean, it was already fried. You can see flame damage," he told the television station.
