Woman's Primark bag catches fire after she took it to Crete

A woman was shocked when her Primark bag went up in flames after it had been left in the sun. Eva Bacchoo, 21, was on holiday in Malia, Crete, when the bag set on fire with her AirPods inside while she was sunbathing.

A TikTok shows the singed edges of the stylish beach bag and suggests the fire may have started as a result of the metal button on the bag getting too hot. Eve's followers gave her their own take on the situation, with some suggesting it had been started by a plastic bottle of water.

The holidaymaker said: “I felt shocked at first but, ultimately, I found it funny how it had set itself on fire. I panicked at first with the AirPods but they were safe.”
