Why tempered glass explode?

The most common reason why glass explodes is that it is subjected to an extreme but uneven temperature change; if you heat up one side of a piece of glass faster than the other side, you get uneven thermal expansion, which then causes great stress in the glass, which can make it explode. Just placing a hot frying pan on a piece of glass can have that effect. Gunfire can also make glass explode. Shockwaves from explosions can make glass explode. So if you live in a war zone, you are at an increased risk of having your glass explode.
