    That has to be fake. If I take the valve core out , it doesn't blow my hand away

    That is the difference between an explosion and a controlled release.

    Bravo. I don't take crap off of inconsiderate drivers. Most of them are all mouth anyway. You did a great job!

    Personally, I think the fuel desk should be by the fuel island and the store should be far away from the fuel island forcing drivers to park where they are supposed to. Oh, I'm sorry. That would require walking wouldn't it?

    That's one of the reasons the valve core is designed the way it is (safely add and remove air). If the core is removed the air will be coming out in a hurry but since it's a metal stem it can handle the pressure change. Not so much with sidewall rubber. One little puncture will open up like a zipper... a LOT faster than you can get out of the way.

    And that was a four wheeler, correct? Tires most likely inflated to a level of 30-60 psi.

    Double or triple that for a semi!!!
