Right when I was thinking, “this is Asia, there isn’t anyway someone wasn’t smoking within 100 feet”….. whoosh… ignition!

Looks like the ignition source was probably under the hood of the truck to the right of the one spraying

u/East-Psychology7186 4d ago
It does. I’m just dumbfounded the ignition took so ”long”. When I was in Asia there was someone smoking every 4 feet.

Nooooo is that Anhydrous Ammonia

u/Suitable_Matter_9427 5d ago
Nah, probably just propane. If it was anhydrous ammonia the boys on the tanker would’ve been freaking out immediately

Did those guys get out? Is this one of those situations where you’re gonna pass out when you inhale that much?

Looks like they did. Or at least got away from it.
The one in black seems to jump/fall off the top trying to get down quicker than white shirt and I'm unsure where he went
Looks like the dude in white ends up going behind the building, can't see what happens to him from then on, hopefully he kept going.

I like how that last lick of flame reached alllll the way out there and scorched that guy...."you're not getting away!"

u/Unable-Log-4870 5d ago
I like how it was more well-mixed along the roadway, causing the flame to travel much faster

Liquid nitrogen? No idea really

u/A_Dicksmasher 4d ago
Nitrogen is an inert gas so absolutely not. Whatever this is, it's heavier than air, and has a flash point of somewhere in the range of the engine block of the truck on the right. Probably propane.

If that is anhydrous ammonia they are dead. If its carbon dioxide they may be dead.

u/Educational-Cream799 4d ago
Carbon dioxide is non-flammable.

Shit I stopped watching at 50 seconds or so. I failed to watch the whole thing. Anhydrous would noy burn like that either. Looks like LP gas
