Having worked on the servicing of Smelter Furnaces ]Electric & gas powered] for umpteen years I can assure you that nobody would get burnt from a molten metal explosion during casting nor metal transfer if they were equipped with the suitable full safety gear [clothing ETC}. It is a common occurrence for these Molten Metal "Explosions". Part of the normal work practice.
