The one exploded battery I've known in person was
an old farmer trying to start a Gehl Skid Steer.
He had the battery on 12 volt boost. He went to
adjust the battery clamps with the charger still
on / plugged in. I was on the other side of the
machine, but I remember his words "get some water
for my eyes".


So how WERE his eyes?


Quite endangered. We went into the house, he
rinsed with water, and a pinch of baking soda.
Refused medical care, ambulance, etc.

No lasting damage to my knowledge.
