Last night I decided to cook a whole chicken. I turned the oven on to 350 degs, put the chicken in a roasting pan, added potatoes carrots asparagus and bell peppers. When I opened the oven door to put the chicken in it blew up. I was covered in flames from my chest to the top of my head. Much of my hair and beard burned off, my right eye is still a little blurry and my face has a minor burn. Kind of like a really bad sun burn.
As near as I can figure, when we cleaned the lower oven last time I put the gas diffuser in wrong. This allowed only a small flame to light and the rest of the oven filled up with gas. When I opened the door all that gas ignighted.
The moral of the story is that you never know what is going to "get" you.
Anyway once I fixed the oven I cooked the chicken. It was great.
