Woman suffers serious burns to her buttocks after toilet EXPLODES beneath her

A woman in Spain is said to have sued the management of a bar in Barcelona after a toilet exploded and caused her serious injuries.
The unidentified woman suffered second and third degree burns and had to undergo skin graft operations.
The explosion is said to have been caused after a gas build up in the cubicle was ignited by a light the victim turned on.
Daily Mail reports:


The explosion is thought to have been caused by a lack of ventilation and cleanliness in the toilet cubicle.

 

The woman is reported to have taken action against bar in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, after police revealed the blast was thought to be caused by unhygienic conditions

The woman suffered second and third degree burns to her legs when the toilet she was sitting on exploded from underneath her.
The Local reported police believe the blast was ignited by the unhygienic conditions of the septic tank and the lack of ventilation in the cubicle.
When the woman switched on the light, a spark ignited methane gas which had filled the toilet.
Because the woman was sitting down, the gas was compressed, causing a stronger blast.
According to Catalunya Radio, the woman has since sued the owners of the bar for the serious injuries she sustained.
