Nitrous bottle failure/explosion

[Built6spdMCSS]

I heard they weren't killed, but I don't know. At the very least their ears would be ringing I'd think. The car didn't contain the pressure very well, so that probably made it better than it could have been.

That much energy with the release of pressure, their ears would pop and be bleeding, would rupture sinuses, and definitely would have a headache.

Soft tissue damage would happen before the windows would blowout of that vehicle.

I saw this on the FaceSpace. As usual the discussion was pretty stupid... But, assuming it's not a doctored picture, it would look like they had taken the safety "burst disk" out and put a plug in instead. It's possible to have compressed gas bottles fail even if the safety devices are working, but it's so rare that it's almost never something that happens. Hopefully not a repost too.

Or “he’s full of hot air”.

Or “he’s full of hot air”.

But would you go far enough to call the driver a 'blowhard?'

Or a windbag. Either one works for me.

Still, definitely a 'bottleneck' issue with how he plumbed his system.
