In Japan you may well get an unpleasant surprise next time you go to the toilet. Already renowned for incomprehensible remote controls and buttons for everything from flushing, water jets and blow drying (!), some models have recently gone wrong and caused the bowl to catch fire. That would smart a bit. Apparently the spokeswoman said, “fortunately, nobody was using the toilets when the fire broke out and there were no injuries.”
Reminds me of a similar thing William Deedman did at school with a deodorant spray, lighter and flatulence. He got blowback. Ooof.

Times, odd Japanese toilet video, the manufacturer of the special option toilet.
