As someone blow has pointed out, there are actually many, documented, examples of cylinder accidents. If you search for medical oxygen cylinder accident on google, you'll likely find one prime example. There are even photos complete with blood. Another example comes from a shipyard, drilling into supposedly empty and end of life cylinders. Also look for cylinder yard explodes on here, to see just how far they go when fire is involved.

@pleasuretrip That aint gonna leave a mark. Because the part of your body where the mark is will be blown apart

Adam's reaction to the hole was just classic.

Does anyone know what the episode, where they were climbing up and down walls, is called? I'm talking about the episode, where Kari, Grant and Tori were climbing down with their own home-made ropes and Adam was trying to climb up a wall, I think it was a glass wall...

These are compressed at about 15000 kPa. It would do some damage

Adam's laugh at 1:05 is probably the best example I've heard of just pure joy.

It's a cinder block wall, and as a proof of concept tells you that you don't want one of these tanks flying around you. Your body isn't grouted or rebarred either; this would definitely leave a mark.
