Acetylene bottle in the back of a Toyota FJ
You can make the rules but you can't make people follow them.
This happened in Regina Tuesday (29 November 2011).
Here is what the owner said:
So my time almost came to an end this morning... I'm very lucky to be
alive.
I had an acetylene bottle in my truck, the valve was bumped so slightly and
over night the truck filled with the gas. I noticed the smell, and opened
the doors to air out the truck. I drove the truck out of the garage to get
some more air movement. I went to roll the pass side window down and as
soon as I touched the power windows. BAM - with me in the truck. I lost all
hearing out of my right ear and got a scratch on the back of my head. All
things considering, I'm alive.
Pictures tell 1000 words.
Don't take any minutes or seconds you have for granted... it may be your
last...
