Footage has emerged of a Syrian rebel seemingly blowing himself and his fellow freedom fighters up after accidentally taking a selfie with a phone connected to a bomb.
It appears that eight men were taken out by the blast in what was a major mistake.
After the explosion, which was not as big as some explosions, individuals from behind the camera run into shot and shout 'Allahu Akbar' (God is great) as they try to help.

The video clip lasts half-a-minute and shows the man lift a camera phone up to take a picture with his seven friends, who are reportedly members of the Free Syrian Army.
A noise can then be heard of the camera mechanism before the explosion occurs as the men sit in front of a rebel flag.

The men were also being filmed on a separate video camera which captured the whole accident, although the footage has not been verified.
Before the explosion occurs, the men can be heard singing and there are guns in front of them.
There has been no confirmation of the extent of any injuries suffered in the explosion or whether anyone was killed.
