I was at a car show of all things, when I ran into a guy who said he worked on the CRT line at RCA Lancaster. He said that occasionally, a tube would let go when it was coming down the line (they hung on overhead hooks) and it would cause several in a row to go off, raining glass down on everyone.
He also mentioned that anyone assigned to packing crts had to wear a flak jacket arrangement. Of course, most people didn't so he said all too often, he would hear the implosion, and grab a mop so he could clean up the massive blood trail leading to the infirmary.
