, In December last year, an electrician was given the task of fixing a broken PS4, which apparently was giving off a "strong smell" after it turned off.

Instead of a normal electrical problem, when he opened it up, he found a dead snake had essentially been burned into the circuit board in two different places.

That's why you should always leave repairs to the professionals.
