FYI - Terrorists in Germany used propane tanks and fire extinguishers filled with explosives during the 1980's. I remember one at Ramstein AB in 1985 that was built from a 20 lb tank.

I saw a video a few years back that stunned me.
It was a demonstration of the explosive power of several substances. A guy shot a round into a diesel tank, small poof and a little fire, then the same guy shot a round into a tank of gasoline, pretty bog boom....it looked similar to the smokey pirotechnics on a hollyweird set.....then the guy shot a 20lb. tank of propane.
Holy COW!!!!!
Huge explosion and full blown mushroom cloud, it even rocked the camera that was filming from about 300 feet away. After that, I switched to a diesel stove on my camper....no way I'm trucking one of those 20 lb. bombs around with my loved ones!
