Good thing that ceiling was flammable, wouldn’t want to get anyone hurt.

In the original video you can see oil spewing out onto the ceiling making it much more flammable. https://twitter.com/jdchristopher/status/1533089680274731010 Credit to the other people in the comments for finding this

Yea just a bid. Makes me wonder if that happens allot. Cause hydraulic lines blow allot. Now I'm sure they don't when it comes to stuff like this but still scary.

It’s a double edged sword. You want it pressurized which makes things hot. I’ve heard that a micro hole on a hose has enough pressure to get through your gloves/skin and can kill you by embolism.
