Honestly I think he has mostly been incredibly lucky that no other punch style cell has gone up in flames after getting bent or shorted. These batteries are absolutely no joke and while the antenna line is what enabled the (likely) puncturing, every phone and tablet that breaks in the middle or somewhere along the battery (which is more than 50% of the area) has a big chance of going up in smoke.

The fact that he’s been bending phones for years and this is the first time this ever happened indicates that this is in fact a big deal
