This is a galvanising plant. The liquid is molten zinc at >420°C, explaining the rapid combustion of his clothing.
The explosion was probably caused by the introduction of a small amount of water trapped inside the item being dipped. At these temps water flashes to a volume of steam about 1600 times that of the water it started as.

Thanks for the details! Would you happen to know the chances of surviving something like that? At minimum his entire body got burned no?

Very high, I doubt this was fatal. Saved by his reaction time and the Leidenfrost effect.

But it looked like he spit something out though? Are you sure that wasn't fatal?

Interesting. Never heard of that effect before.
