I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Lady sitting above the tank that exploded lost both her feet but is alive.

I remember quite a while ago we were talking about propane vehicles and I mentioned something about what if you got hit and it exploded.

A lot said that couldn't happen.


I  can't view the vid.......but did this thing get hit or some other type of failure?

looks like a failure, but notice it didnt explode, just mass pressure release

It wasn't hit...tank just ruptured for no apparent reason.

Luckily there wasn't a spark to ignite the gas...
