I would hope that there are other fire safety tools in the house, especially when you own this fake fire extinguisher phone. The cheeky little device is exactly what it sounds like: a phone that looks like a fire extinguisher.
It simply plugs into a landline and works just like a regular phone. The number pad is on the bottom of the fire extinguisher (so it can be hidden and in turn contribute to the ultimate prank) and it looks as though you can just hold the nozzle to your ear to listen and speak.
The fake fire extinguisher phone is either a great little fun addition to your playful home or a horrible safety hazard for everyone!
