I've never had an electic oven explode. I have never seen a metal element 'blow out' the way this one has. Last night, we found a possible reason it did this. It has six legs and was probably not made of charcoal in its natural state. I think the insect provided a lovely ground for the electrickery flowing through the element making a hotspot...

The lights flickered, a loud bang and a nasty buzzing sound was heard. I ran to the kitchen to find my oven glowing like the sun at midday. I flicked it off and opened it to find the metal element inside now had a fucking huge hole bitten out of the side.

Great.
