I think my hand was covering the mic a little but you can still hear it sounds like the wheel they spin on wheel of fortune. The stuff in my hand was just some of the pieces they came out of it, they were metal but there was more metal pieces and some other like plastic or ceramic pieces too that came from it. I'm sure more too that flew out when it happened.

Crappy. Happy B-Day!

5 alternators? Sounds like you need to upgrade.
