Holy crap, as terrible as that was I had always wanted to see how devastating an accident with a truck full or oxygen cylinders would be. Now I know.

This was the first thought I had when I was called that my garage was on fire. I immediately called the local fd station and reported the location of my cylinders.

(I was glad to find they put the leaking acetylene cylinder next to the bulged oxygen tank in the a-frame of my trailer when I got home......)

:eek: I wonder what it all looked like when it had cooled down? I think if the camera operator or those in the shot knew exactly how heavy those cylinders actually are, even when empty, they'd be backing up.....they looked like small sky rockets buzzing around!

It's a wonder none of the close onlookers got hit by shrapnel. :confused:

That's what I thought to! :jaw:


I google the heck out of this. from what I can tell is that it was 119 LPG cylinders. Accident happened on Moscow's ring road in late 2013. I cannot find any news stories about it though..

No fatalities!!

Those would pierce you in a second. That one guy on the left was crazy to be trying to film it before high tailling it out of there
