Blogger Dies in Accident Involving Whipped Cream Device

A popular fitness and lifestyle blogger is dead after a whipped cream dispenser exploded. 

French blogger Rebecca Burger, 32, was on Sunday struck in the chest by a piece of the device, which injects gas into a metal container to create a high-pressure environment, reports the BBC. As HuffPost puts it, "Faults on the connectors can cause the [gas] capsules to break and expel at high speed."

 In Burger's case, she suffered cardiac arrest and died, per the Telegraph. Her death was announced by her family on Burger's Instagram account, which has 163,000 followers. Her family warned people not to use the cream dispensers, claiming "tens of thousands of the faulty devices" have been sold.
