No kidding. Basis for a fuel air bomb.

No kidding...kind of reminds me of what I call the "miravle at Indy" when a racecar with a nearly full tank slammed into the wall on the front stretch. You could see in the replay that about the first 10 rows of spectators got sprayed with an aerosol of fuel. By some miracle the fuel didn't ignite. The car went skidding down the track a hundred yards or so before there was a spark and the car caught fire.

If that fuel had ignited it would have been horrible. (still sucked for the driver, but if I remember right he lived)
