He said he heard a BANG so he looked over. The battery had blown up and it lifted the passengers off the seat. Granted that may be a rare instance but obvously it serves to stress the importance of necessary maintenance issues on the vehicle.
The thread is Gas v Electric, both types have batteries and any battery can have a failure. Maybe they were lucky it wasn't a gas cart and the battery explode, next the gas tank.
