You don't have to be a Bubba to have that happen.
September 2002, I had just finished charging the battery in my pickup (battery totally disconnected & vent caps removed). Waited a half hour for battery to finish venting & reconnected battery terminals, Positive first. As soon as I touched the Negative cable to the terminal the battery EXPLODED, spraying me in the face with HOT battery acid. Garden hose was close by & I flushed my eyes out for about 20 minutes and everything seemed OK.
Unbeknownst to me, I had the very early stages of cataracts & the hot battery acid acted like a catalyst. Within 2 months I was TOTALLY BLIND. Normal vision is 20/20, legal blindness is 20/200, MY EYES were 20/400.
Over $14,000. and surgery on BOTH eyes, plus the fact that I will constantly have to wear glasses for the rest of my life, but I have my eyesight back.
