Objective Rating:
Some of the better episodes. They don't all feature major explosions as the title implies, but there are quite a few good ones. Includes the exploding cement truck episode (which was also edited into a special which is on an earlier "Collection"), and the water heater rocket episode, both of which are pretty crazy.
