Okay, so technically CRTs implode, but the result of the implosion can be an explosion. What happens with a CRT implosion is that the the glass gets sucked into the back of the tube with so much force it'll bounce off the back of the tube and come out the front. So they kinda implode and explode. Combine that with the glass being leaded and there's a reason you really shouldn't go out smashing CRTs.
