For an explosion to occur, the force must be contained until it overcomes the constraint abruptly. NiMH cells are made with a vent, so no explosion.
It's an obvious safety concern; they wouldn't be able to sell them in much of the world if something as simple and common as exposure to water could trigger an explosion.

Um, forget 'we'. If you want to try blowing things up, don't drag me into it. I do my research in a different manner.
There's a reason the show left out critical steps, ingredients, and details in its 'recipes'.
