A friend of mine was telling me he knew someone years ago(probably 1960's) was walking through a TV store/shop and hit the neck of a CRT of a running set accidentally with a briefcase. Of course the CRT imploded and shot the neck through the front of the set hitting a set sitting across the isle. Must of made a heck of a noise/smoke/arcing! What a mess!

Like Kojak said "I don't buy it". Sounds like an urban myth or whatever it's called. Breaking the TV's back cover, the neck, having what's left of the thin glass neck and guns shoot forward with enough remaining force to go through the front of the CRT then through the safety glass?? I don't think so.

I have to say it sounds improbable also, breaking the neck sure, but not the rest of it!
 If he had a Briefcase he was probably a Salesman, there's nothing a Salesman likes better than a tall tale!
