Spontaneous Discharge of a Firearm in an MR Imaging Environment

[def90]

A high school friend of mine had a round go off in his trunk when a battery contacted it.
Apparently, he had rounds floating in a pocket of a bag that happened to have a 3.7v battery in, as well.
Nothing like learning the other ways to set off bullets.

Doesn't surprise me. In the course of my work I have had 9volt batteries end up in a tool pouch filled with screws, nails and other items.. Things get real hot real fast when you have a short across battery terminals.

sent from a soup can and some string..

I learned that by having a pocket full of batteries once upon a time.
