Re: Car Mechanic Killed While Cleaning Gas Tank
Excellent video showing how petroleum vapors accumulate at ground level. At :28 seconds into video - flames erupt and spread across floor in split second. Awesome.

Re: Car Mechanic Killed While Cleaning Gas Tank
Scariest shit I have seen on this site. The bucket looks like a 5 gallon plastic bucket like in the USA. The flame starts under the bucket. Static electricity can ignite gasoline vapor, but I don't know what these two did wrong. The only thing I can think of is that the can is steel and it sparked on the bottom when moved. Truly Documenting Reality and I am never going to put gasoline in an unapproved container again. |

Re: Car Mechanic Killed While Cleaning Gas Tank
Outside fumes will dissipate. It may have been static from a plastic pail, but being confined in that space set the stage for an explosive situation. IMO |
