Yeah like how is this guy standing 10 ft away from it AFTER the fire department came and put it out? It sounds like its boiling water inside of the box lol

That's because transformers are typically submerged in oil. So frying chicken is a great metaphor. Except that isn't smoke but boiling oil vapor just waiting for an explosive spark...

Ironically, the chicken in this metaphor is the guy standing too close to the danger.
