Default Looks like you drove on a low tire for to long......
IMHO, it looks like the edge of the rim crushed the sidewall when it got low and thus weakened it considerably. When you tried to fill it up, BOOM! Probably a good thing it blew up in only 10 seconds.
Glad your OK man.

glad you are OK. looks like your rim sliced into it while it was low, weakening the structure
