Well, I can’t for the life of me figure out why the site, with an embedded video, looks fine from one PC, but on another is all chewed up. Any advice, do let me know, until then I’ll just have to keep linking them.

Everyone knows the best videos involve explosions, and accordingly I have found a science-themed explosion video which isn’t some old nuclear test footage. Excite yourselves with amateur footage of an MRI machine exploding, thankfully not when it was scanning a patient.
From what I can gather, the machine was removed from the hospital and undergoing venting in the parking lot (probably to make it safe for transport). This involves allowing the liquid helium to boil off, but unfortunately the vents weren’t quite up to the task, and the failsafe seals, designed to crack open if the pressure inside became dangerously high, didn’t. Luckily nobody was hurt, although cleaning up all that debris can’t have been fun.
