"Warning to those wearing Contact Lenses" is a Hoax

Sean forwarded this email to me. I do not know if it is true or not, so I decided to Google it. Turns out that the email is a hoax! Check out the links below.



START EMAIL

To those who wear contact lenses, remove them when you have to attend a BBQ party or whatsoever that got to do with flames...

I heard a horrible true story about contact lenses.... It happened to a 21 year old guy, he wore a pair of contact lenses during a barbecue party. While, he was barbecuing, he stared at the fire charcoals. After a few seconds, he started to scream for help and moved rapidly, jumping up and down. No one in the party knew why... When he arrived at the Hospital, the doctor said he'll be blind permanently courtesy of the contact lenses that he had worn. Contact lenses are made by plastics, and the heat from the charcoal melted his contact lenses. So, tell all your friends.....

DO NOT WEAR CONTACT LENSES WHERE OVERHEATING AND FLAMES ARE CONCERNED... pass this message to all your friends.
