Words can't describe just how crazy this is!!!
 

Check out the first post and pics on this thread. I found it on another forum I frequent... How this guy survived is beyond me!:eek:

Wow.....that dude's lucky......:eek:

:angel:

Edit.....I've seen some pull behind campers where the propane caused the same effects.....

Always make sure the cylinders are shut off and capped and preferably transported outside of the vehicle or not in an enclosed space....

Those pics are unreal. I can't believe he's alive to tell the story, lucky guy.

Wow!

I actually know that guy personally.

I didn't read the entire thread, but I'd curious to see if he gets his hearing back.

Any welder or safety man will tell you that you don't transport acetylene
cylinders laying down either. Makes them unstable.

I cant believe he actually posted those pictures the day of the explosion...

I hope that stupid sum-beotch hasn't procreated yet.

One veryyyyy luck dude right there.

What you wanna bet his insurance is useless because he had them in there
to begin with.

insurance covers stupidity :ll:

ya they are suppost to be up right and straped in.

i have transported them laying down but always had the valve cap thing on.

What "valve cap thing"? I've owned oxy. and acy. tanks for the last 40 years and I've never had an acetylene tank with a cap. The valve is recessed to the level of the top of the tank rim and uses a small wrench with a very small square hole to turn it on. No chance that I can see of turning on accidently. The oxy. has a cap, but none needed on the acy.

IIRC the big ones can have caps. But, WTH hauls a large tank of acetylene in an FJ? While I'm at it, WTH hauls around Acetylene in an enclosed vehicle??

BTW, the thread's gone.
