Re: Dead After Refilling an Oxygen Cylinder
thanks for the helpful comments. I know about ignition but I didn't know how else these could kill you  |

Re: Dead After Refilling an Oxygen Cylinder
I think that it is just a plastic trash bag. (If you're talking about photo #3.) |

Re: Dead After Refilling an Oxygen Cylinder
Yes, now that I zoom in on it I think so too. Where did the canister hit him though? In the head?

Re: Dead After Refilling an Oxygen Cylinder
Enlarge the 4th pic and look at his shoe-less foot. Also looks like a head injury.

Re: Dead After Refilling an Oxygen Cylinder
If any of the fittings he was using have ANY oil on them at all, it becomes a self-detonating explosive as soon as you put high pressure oxygen on them. We deal with those high pressure oxygen bottles every day where I work on aircraft, and we have never had an accident. You MUST follow the rules, ALWAYS, EVERY TIME!

Re: Dead After Refilling an Oxygen Cylinder
How did it hit his foot/ankle as well as his head, though? I mean, I can kind of see the damage in both places, but I just can't figure out the logistics of how it went down?!?   |

Re: Dead After Refilling an Oxygen Cylinder
I think the blood on his head is from contact with the blood on the ground from the amputation of his right leg at the shin ( look closely). Crawled out ( maybe fainted ) but died of massive blood loss before medics could get to him ( maybe rural town etc).
