It was startling but more of a "WHOA!" moment than anything. I was more alarmed when I saw Black Knight getting dissected by some robot with blades and it has a gas powered engine and there's sparks flying all over the place and no one seemed to be concerned about the possibility of an explosion. Fred Needel told me they only put 12 ounces of gas in it and it'll only make a little "pop" and it was behind bullet proof glass. Still had me worried.
