Lol, you’d be surprised at what lurks in urban environments. Hell, north americas worst nuclear disaster occurred in Chatsworth, California, In 1959 and hardly anyone even knows about it.
It’s such a coverup, that California continues to resist turning it into a superfund site.
Nope never heard of it. After we had the big explosion ten years ago they banned new propane filling stations from being built in residential areas.
IKR!!

Crazy when I was a teen I worked at a materials yard (like lumber and bricks and gravel) between that and a industrial gas supply (soda gas to acetylene) I have filled many propane tanks. Crazy how many people don't think and light a cig or something stupid like that! I never liked that feeling.......a cilinder is a fucking missle with no direction.Nope never heard of it.

Probably didn't know or not thinking. There was news story a while ago about people smoking in their car while transporting propane cylinders. It didn't end very well for them.

I had a weekend job at a hardware store when I was 15. I think I learned to fill propane tanks on day 2.lol
I delivered propane for a while and having a tank pop off will certainly get your attention. Lol. Oh and fire department, they come too

LOL one day at the gas supply all the burst discs on the C02 tanks started to pop! A new guy over filled and when it starts to warm up in the tank the pressure comes up. Like 100 tanks!I had a weekend job at a hardware store when I was 15. I think I learned to fill propane tanks on day 2.lol

Here's what happens when you leave a full scuba tank in a hot car.Probably didn't know or not thinking. There was news story a while ago about people smoking in their car while transporting propane cylinders. It didn't end very well for them.
No smoking required.
In this same vein:
Living in St. Louis where Anhydrous Ammonia theft is rampant for meth production I heard of a couple of dudes traveling down the interstate when a fire extinguisher filled with the stuff blew - that's the last trip they ever took.

I remember that, I was 9 and lived in Burbank. It was very hush-hush, I think it was blamed on a gas explosion, that set fire to the surrounding brush/trees of the undeveloped land, kept folks away from area and it dropped out of the news cycle quickly. Since it was basically in the wild land folks didn't give it too much thought .
