Running nitrous doesnt have to be like this! With some time spent hookinh it up right, using a descent sized shot, and using some discretion will save this from happening. I have been running nitrous on cars for about 8 years now without a single incident. Let's not give nitrous a bad name because someone used it wrong....

Look in his truck, he has alot of painting suplies, that explosion could have been cause by heain the trunk causing the bottle pressure to rise rise. The supplies could have combusted, trust me, my house and a friends back house have both burned down from painting supplies combusting, the two incidents were not related. I have grown up arround compressed gas. I played tournement paintball for a long time and you are running and sliding holding a tank full of 4500 psi of nitrogen. The bottles can hold the pressure without fail. They have to be hydrotested every 5 years where 6000 psi isput into the bottles to see if they crack, the test in done under water to see any bubbles. Something else happened to make that tank explode.
