It's a moment of sheer panic: you're chilling out in the living room and you hear the sound of water boiling over coming from the kitchen.
Thankfully, one man has come up with an ingenious life hack to prevent this travesty from happening.
The man, known only as Imgur user @boxbatter, FaceTimes his bubbling broth so he can keep an eye on it from any room in the house, using his iPhone.
Brilliant.
