Gladstone man Anton Guinea luckily escaped death when an industrial switchboard exploded in his face, exposing him to a 20,000C shock that left him with second degree burns over 16 per cent of his body.
He was a young 21-year-old electrical apprentice when he was measuring where to drill some holes on March 8, 1994.
The accident left him in a Brisbane hospital where he needed to have the dead skin removed, and it took five weeks before he was finally released.
He said rushing the job and trying to save five minutes left him in hospital where he lost five weeks of his life.
