I had one many years ago. Man just got done refinishing the hardwood floors in his house. He stepped out on the front porch with the door open and lit up a smoke. BOOM it blew him off the porch and blew out all the windows of the house. Lucky no fire after the blast

Not firefighter related but: I was working in a lumberyard, two of the forklifts were the same but, one was gas one diesel. Some one had put gas in the diesel forklift. I walked around a corner just as the safety foreman was about to flip the switch of a wet/dry vac. to suck the gas out of the tank. I stopped him just in time. what do you think would have happened when those gas fumes went through the electric motor???

It would have turned "firefighter related" really quickly. Might have also been a blemish on his "safety" record
