There are capacitors in the ignition and alternators of most cars, that carry enough current to fire an airbag. I had a drivers bag blow one time when I worked in a body shop, it was a faulty mechanism, and it blew out the front window!
The Benz FSM describes a built in circuit that depletes the capacitors automatically.
