Ended up catching part of the wooden beam and the vent above on fire. Spent the rest of that day washing fire extinguisher dust off of everything
Oven exploded next to me at work on Thursday

Holy, glad you’re all right, that could’ve been bad.
well done for your react time and keeping calm
I would need a pants change pronto
Just a kitchen desk-pop.
How does that end up happening?
Good shit on going to the most secure spot in any kitchen… the walk in ✨
Glad you’re alright
If I were a boss watching this video and saw that you 1) immediately went to the walk in for safety and 2) quickly assesed the situation and turned the gass off, I would be giving you a very nice raise.
Top tier emergency situation control!
OP immediately dips to the walk in lol a true chef
Pizza oven too? That’s just given me anxiety gonna share with my co workers
Fantastic reaction time, glad you’re okay! Also holy shit..
About 20 years ago a pizza place near me had oven incident but much worse. The explosion launched the owner over the front counter and through the front window. He lived but was messed up.
The explosion looks like when Gus got blown up in Breaking Bad
Ran straight to the walk in!
Ovens should not release gas if the pilot light is not lit. If the owner doesn’t immediately remove this appliance from service by locking it out before having it repaired, it’s time to call OSHA.
