I'm really surprised he didn't consider the risk. There have been so many li-ion battery fires and for so many years that it's hard to ignore.

He has a you tube channel called Rich Rebuilds where he documented the whole thing. They didn’t even tie the batteries down they were just laying in the back

Listen especially to the end of that video.
Not only no BMS, but also no coolant, for which the Tesla pack was designed.
I presume it was (over) charging the cells when it went into runaway,
turning the cells into something resembling live ammo (per the question
from the FD).
Saw the burning cell bounce off the front of the fire truck?

Video of a pair of 444-cell Tesla modules going into thermal runaway
after being used to replace lead acid batteries.

It had no BMS on it (I suspect it was charging when it burst into flames).

They have video from the surveillance camera system and it's quite an
impressive show....
