For those who don't know I'll pass this on. BATTERY ACID WILL INSTANTLY BLIND YOU IF GOTTEN IN YOUR EYES. WEAR GOOGLES ANY TIME WHEN HANDLING, CHARGING OR JUMPING BATTERIES IN ANY TYPE OF VEHICLE. What happened to your battery is very common. Any one that is in the maintenance field most likely has seen this numerous times like my self. We had one just last week in an excavator blow the end out. Sounds like a shot gun. This battery wasn't even on the charger. Many times a battery will leak around the posts if they have any age on them, then a loose connection at that post can create a spark when trying to start the engine. They say batteries are built to blow out the bottom or the sides so the top don't blow in some one's face.
