A Chinese throws himself in an iron smelting furnace, after losing in the stock market



A Chinese man threw himself into an iron melting furnace with a temperature of over 1,500 degrees Celsius after losing the equivalent of $ 9,100 in trading stocks.


Wang Long, 33, who works for the "Baot Steel" company in Mongolia, was lost by his colleagues while he was working on the shift last week, and after searching for him, it was found that he threw himself in the melting furnace.


Shocking video clips spread on Chinese networks of the man throwing his helmet into the fire, and then following it into the pit of the iron smelter.


The company said, "Wang's death may be related to his commercial losses as he was investing in the stock market." It was later found that Wang, on the day of his suicide, lost more than 60,000 yuan, less than $ 10,000.


Many Chinese are looking for quick profit through speculation in the Chinese stock market, which may be more like gambling for some of them, the site said.
