A 47-year-old woman died after being electrocuted while holding a charging iPhone in the bathroom of her home in Santry, Ireland, on October 6, 2025. The woman, identified as Joe’s wife, was found unresponsive by her husband, Joe. Pathologist Haydi Okker reported that she sustained burns on her chest and left arm.

She was pronounced dead at Boonam hospital. According to reports, Joe attempted to remove his wife from the water when he experienced a shock. He stated that the advertising of modern smartphones creates a misleading impression of their safety and waterproof capabilities, and that no manufacturer provides warnings regarding the fatal risk of charging devices in contact with water.

The incident has raised concerns about the safety of using charging devices near water and the need for clearer consumer warnings. The woman was found unconscious while holding her iPhone.
