Years ago we were cleaning up a lot in down town Charleston where the buildings are close together on narrow lots. Dad had a 65 ford F600 with the battery under the floor board. My brother and I were loading debris in the truck when all of a sudden the truck cranks up and backs into the building next door. There was a short in the wiring some where and it wont choke down because the starter is running just sitting there against a brick building spinning the tires in reverse. I ran to the drivers side and took it out of gear but it is still running and the key is off. My brother went to the passenger side pulls the cover off the floor board. We were both jerking on the battery cables when one of them came off it caused a spark and POP part of the top of the battery blew off. Luckily neither one had anything more than a few cuts on our hands. There was a hose near by and we and washed ourselves off. What saved us was we both knew that it might happen and we were looking away from the battery when it blew. Ron
