I have only blown an electrolytic capacitor once - had to do it to see what it would do. I had always heard that they boiled when reverse biased or just plain old sent too much voltage across 'em. So I got a medium to large can and sent it the juice. Pow! It's amazing how much pressure can build before they pop and send electrolyte confetti and can shrapnel everywhere. A guy should definitely be careful with this stuff.
