Propane tanks have safety valves. There’s basically a spring-loaded stopper in it that prevents gas from coming out if you open the valve but nothing is connected to it. So you need to screw a hose into the valve and leave the other end disconnected, and then open the valve.

What hands? They gone now.
Why on earth would a person not open the valve first?

This guy clearly didn’t realize that.
Lolz before balls bro.
It’d be sensible, if the bloody tank were empty.
They better hope that thing stays upright for the entire discharge otherwise they’ve got a missile with no control surfaces on their hands.
