Hydrgoen gas is lighter than air so if there is a leak the gas extends upward instead on the ground like a liquid. Hydrogen gas is odor free unlike gasoline. besides to get the really nice movie like explosions, you need to add oxygen. I have been driving around on hydrogen hybrid Lancruiser for about year. Used properly it's the safest gas on the Planet!brian bartelThu, 08 Sep 2005 18:18:34 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2005/09/05/united-nuclears-hydrogen-fuel-systems/#comment-1753353I have carried around scuba takes in the back of my car for long periods of time, for miles and miles. They frequently have 3000 psi or even slightly more and I have never had a single problem. These tanks are strong. People have their sense of reality too deeply defined from movies.KevinTue, 06 Sep 2005 15:01:40 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2005/09/05/united-nuclears-hydrogen-fuel-systems/#comment-1753354That's been a supposition with hydrogen-burning cars for a long time. If they can make scuba tanks that can be reused thousands of times without blowing up (they have something like 1200 psi of air in them), then I'm sure that they can make safe hydrogen tanks. Gasoline vapor is even more explosive than hydrogen gas, and you get a hell of a lot of gasoline vapor when you rupture a gas tank, yet explosions from auto accidents that are caused by exploding fuel from a ruptured tank are extremely rare, despite the location and construction of most fuel tank (thin-gauge metal or, more recently, injection-molded platic).Adam WadeTue, 06 Sep 2005 14:11:49 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2005/09/05/united-nuclears-hydrogen-fuel-systems/#comment-1753352sounds like it would make for a spectacular accident on the 6 o'clock newsfgarrielTue, 06 Sep 2005 08:48:02 -0000
