Description This is a extreme close-up of short circuit inside a LCD. A piece of derbies lodged between that large brick and the other component. Poof! Bang! the LCD smoked and left a white dust inside of it. I thought the contrast looked cool.

Have you ever connected an LED to a 9 Volt battery? *Pop* like popcorn

Nice.

I'm with Paul on that one. An electric fireplace in my house blew up(not literally, but you get the idea) once, thanks to a faulty wire, and the smell does tend to hang around...
