This is the moment a man's shirt went up in smoke - after his mobile phone exploded in his pocket.

The man was eating in a hotel when smoke began to billow from his clothing and terrified diners fled the restaurant.

Shocking CCTV shows the corner of the room filled up with smoke before he hurled the melting phone away.
