Somehow, it is more than appropriate that this happens in DiBlasio's New York. Guy lights match in science lab to check for leak. It's like a Wil E Coyote cartoon.

I’m curious to know who the contractor was and who was working for them.

You wouldn’t believe what goes on down there with the building trades.

What an idiot. Obviously not someone who works for the gas company, or is a gas certified plumber.

And to think we use “soap bubbles” to test for leaky joints. That, and a sense of smell or electronic sniffers. Never thought of using fire to check for leaks in a flammable circuit. No WONDER union nimrods look down on us lowly unaffiliated tradesmen.

Oscar Jimenez, 40, was working at Tibbett Diner nearby when the blast happened. At a press conference held by the Mayor and the Fire Department Jiminez said “My name is Oscar J. Jiminez. But you can call me Jose...”

Even I, a little old widow lady biker bass-player, know that one checks for gas leaks with DISH SOAP, not a MATCH!
