Saved by the mobile!

Saved by the mobile!

While most of us believe that mobiles are irritating and dangerous, one man can actually claim that a mobile saved his life.


While skiing in the Swiss Alps, David Fitzherbert fell down a crevasse and was saved because his smart phone got wedged in the crevasse wall.



But while this gentleman was lucky, mobiles are still dangerous for most of the rest of us. A study says that usage of mobiles during pregnancy results in children with behavioural problems.


Another study says that children under the age of eight should not use mobile phones.

In fact, according to an award-winning cancer expert mobile phones could kill far more people than smoking.

But not everybody agrees with such findings.

Even if you don't believe these studies, driving while using a mobile is still extremely dangerous.
