Sounds like you got lucky! Both that you were not injured and that nothing was damaged. The arcing can damage electronic circuits in equipment. I have seen batteries physically explode from exactly the same scenario. Electrical tape wrapped around the plier handles or wrench to insulate them can prevent this from happening. Be especially careful if the batteries have just been recharged! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
