DOT does not require bank tanks to be hydro'd, or inspected, because they are not transported. Maybe now they will!

I see rust spots in that tank....

These don't look like DOT cylinders, these look like Navy surplus submarine bottles. Different set of rules. If my foggy memory serves me, the navy cylinders do have a test pressure on them, and are tested while in service. They also have a shelf life past which the navy scraps the cylinders.

I'm wondering where the other half of the cylinder went.
It's bad luck to be superstitious.
It was spotted by the crew of the International Space Station as it went by...

Looks like there is a small grocery store across the street. I wonder what the chances are that they have a video camera that monitors the front door or parking lot that may have caught the explosion.
I may have watched too much 24

Hope the insides of those tanks look better than the outsides. No wonder they ruptured.

I bet the guy working pooped himself, I bet I would have.
Is Soviet way, is good.
Hopefully they had a fresh pair of shorts laying around... that would have been one hell of a boom...
I was just there this past Saturday. Kinda freaky!
