A few years back ( i was like 12) was walking up the street towards the bus stop to head to school a squirell has made a nest inside a grey cylindrical transformer, and made a wrong step when i was under it, thing went up, Made the strangest- scariest noise i have ever heard in my life... Not gonna lie- i pissed my pants that morning
I witnessed a transformer going, all you hear is raw current and it's just like ball lighning, thankfully I was ~100 yards from it, but it did leave spots in my eyes for 5 or 10 minutes. I was a welder for years, and this was as bad as my worst case of close range flashburn.

Incredible video, you think it's done, then it sends the test current- look out for that!
