Welding truck loaded with cylinders explodes

I knew of a plumber that left a gas cylinder in the cab of his pick up truck overnight...A valve leaked, the next morning poor guy lit a cig in the cab and blew the truck all to heck, killed him.

 

A graphic example of why a fuel source such as that should never be in a unventilated confined space.

 

You talking about the one in southern IL where the guy rear-ended another truck on County Line Road and his truck exploded and he died? I saw the mark on the road the next day and could still smell the gas, used to work down there...

 

St. Louis Gas Cylinders Disaster:

 

Wow, don't recall that. Was living in southern IL in '05 and guess just never heard about it. Thanks for the info
