Do be extremely careful with large bottles of gas, regardless of their
contents.
Someone knocked a large lab sized gas bottle (bottle the size of a man) full
of whatever is used in Bunsen burners over at my school about ten years
back. When it hit the ground, it knocked its valve stem piece right off.
It had a 20 foot running start, then went through two seperate walls made of
cinder block, then the gas that had escaped exploded. It was quite
exciting. No one was killed, but there would have been ~20 deaths if the
classroom it went through had it been in use. Nothing was left that was
recognizable.
Those big tanks are weapons grade powerful if you piss them off.
Do be careful.
