    I was an aircraft mechanic. I saw in one of our safety magazines the pictures of a mechanic who had a tire blow after more than 300psi on a 10 ply tire. It ripped the corners of his mouth open from the air pressure blowing into his open mouth. He did survive but probably stopped working on tires after that.

    I use 2 air hoses. If anything happens, I disconect the hoses from each other and let air out. I definitely know that sound and the following boom.

    Thats why you're suppose to cage them. I've had brand new tires blow. It's part of it. Cages will keep your limbs intact
  • Had this happen to me a few years ago. I got the truck tire on the truck to 70 lbs and started hearing this. I just had that thought to run and bang right in my face. It was the inside dual and I couldn't hear for 10 minutes. My eyes were full of shrapnel from the tire. Went to the doctor for 2 days to get the steel put of my eyes. If it was the outside one I wouldn't be writing this.
  • The worst is when you hear a tire make a sound like creaking wood and it's not even seated yet. Tires blowing up is not a fun time, the shop I worked at before the one I'm at now, had a bad steer tire blow when my bosses brother was airing it up. Sounded like a small bomb. My friend/coworker who's in the national guard and has been to Iraq twice told me "I almost told y'all to return fire"

    I would have un hooked the line from truck not walk over the tyre bit silly if ya ask me
  • As someone who works on truck tires daily I’ll keep this in mind I mostly install new ones but sometimes I have to mess around with used stuff. Great video

    I used to work in a tire shop. Was working on a very small wheel barrow or trailer or tractor tire idrk, but it was tubed. I was used to doing 35 psi on cars, and I got to like 20 psi in the little tube and it blew up. It was like getting hit with a concussion grenade. I didn't even realize what happened, but my ears were ringing for a good 15 minutes while I got my senses back. Can't imagine the damage one of those would do.
  • Hey bud I did tires for 2 years for Bridgestone/GCR. I would put a inline shut off at the truck. After the shut off put a pressure guage and a blow off valve. So if you hear this you can shut off the air to it and deflate without getting near the tire. Another bonus is being able to shut the air off and check tire pressure. Stay safe my friend.

    As a young tire tech I learned that a portable tire cage is essential to staying with the living, particularly on LT and above tires. We even still came across the random rogue split rim and I wouldnt even decompress them out of a cage.
  • Though extremely inconvenient they do make tire cages for this. Also. Pro Tip. Those air chucks are designed to be pulled from a safe distance. Whip the hose and the chuck pops off. Sometimes they will damage valve stems but I’d rather replace a stem vs the equivalent of a stick of dynamite going off next to me. For those who don’t know these tires exploding can kill and injure upto 12 ft. Stay safe
  • Worked with a guy who died from an exploding loader tire. I was talking to him and noticed his tire nearly flat. I told him, and he left to take care of it. 20 minutes later I hear the call for ems on the radio. A few minutes later, he was dead. It is a weird feeling to be talking to someone and a few minutes later they are dead because they tried to fix a problem you told them about. I felt responsible for quite a long time.
  • Had a really close call the other day. One of our loader tractors out on the farm had the front left tire get knocked off the bead. I brought the service truck down and tried to put air to it, but it wouldn’t take. So I took the rim off the tractor and put it in the back of the truck and went to the tire shop. They inspected it, started putting air to it and then I heard the zipper. The guy popped the air hose off and yelled,” back up back up!” The sidewall got cut by the rim and we missed it. It was the closest zipper they’d seen that didn’t explode. They said I was damn lucky that the tire didn’t take air and explode in my face out at the farm by myself. Shook me a little. 😳
  • Seen a 295/75/22.5 blow in our shop. It busted a bucket, blew the cheetah tool back 15 feet, blew the tire cage all the way around and sounded like a shotgun goin off.
  • I told a customer I couldn’t refill his tire from zero without dismount and cashing the tire to prevent it from hurting anyone. He didn’t listen and did it himself. It blew and sent him flying. Broke his leg, arm and jaw.
  • Also beware if a tire has been run low for sometime it will chew up the liner on the inside and lead to zipper break

    That last statement 😂 Stay Sane! Not a typo 😅
