Please do, it will be a good reference for motivational photo. ;D
Specmaster:
Heres a video that shows one, but not blown, instead it shows the choke and the Rifa filters.

That one looks like a much newer type. The older ones have an X2 across the line, a resistor across that to heat it up nicely (and stop you zapping yourself when it's unplugged) and a couple of Y2's which tend not to explode.
While I am not in the office, here's an EEVblog reference ... HP 3457A explosion: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/just-got-3457a-and-then-boom/msg479303/#msg479303
ElektroQuark:
Are all those filters dangerous? Or is there a data from when their are confiable?
Alternatives to them?
Can they be opened and ofending capacitors changed?
Do those filters deserve a full thread?

I am confident that the EMI filter in the 2465 is not made by Schaffner.
