Woodturning - Tall Sissoo bowl almost exploded on me!

This gnarly looking log is from a Sissoo (Indian rosewood) tree that was cut on 10-8-23. This is the thickest blank I have and I wanted to see how deep of a bowl I could get out of it. I had some trouble but the result was pretty awesome, I think.
These trees are actually quite invasive in residential landscapes and their roots will destroy concrete in patios and pools. A friend was having 2 large trees taken out of his backyard so I "volunteered" to take the logs off of his hands. Lucky me! The heartwood is absolutely gorgeous and the sapwood is a creamy color. I decided to turn this one with a natural edge.
I am very committed to being environmentally responsible and 65% of my shops electricity comes from my home solar panel system. I also transport all the raw logs in my electric vehicle. I rarely pay for wood for turning projects since there is plenty of local wood that I can use that would otherwise end up in the landfill. I enjoy making art from what would otherwise be trash.
I am a relatively new wood turner, so I'm still working on my technique and make plenty of mistakes! All woodworking can be potentially dangerous, so you should not try anything you see me do without instruction. My videos are for entertainment purposes only. I do wear gloves when turning as I have very painful arthritis in my hands and the gloves support my joints. In general, it is not recommended to wear gloves around power tools like this, but this is how I do it.
My lathe: Nova 3000 (it's old, I'm hoping to upgrade someday)
