Dude gets shrapnel to the face, then shoulder dials emergency services while putting out the fire. Total badass.

The owners of the tank should 100% be held accountable for sure they could have killed this man or blinded him

Underappreciated workers 100%. Thank you guys

Whoever put that in the bin should be held accountable. Stupid.

That guy should get a raise. He took the brunt of the blast. Had the awareness to see the fire, knew where the extinguisher was, put it out, then was also the first one to call emergency services. I'd want that guy on my team

That man did an admirable job. After having the contents of the trash truck blasted into his face, he quickly regained his composure and did his job. Hats off to you! Hope you are both ok.

My housemate was about to dispose of a FULL PROPANE can into general garbage when moving out. Thank God I happened to be nearby by accident.

Hope the workers are ok. Whoever put that tank in the garbage should be charged.

Dude neatly gets blown up and has the presence of mind to get the fire extinguisher to put out the flames. Bravo dude.

Caught in an explosion and gets the fire extinguisher and thinks about truck and neighborhood. These guys deserve a paid vacation.

What IDIOT would put the oxygen tank in there? Sue them.

Workers reacted calmly and effectively, well done them

Guy took it hard in the face and then had the presence of mind to check on his coworker and notice and put out the fire.

I really hope those men are okay.

Whoever tossed an O2 tank in the garbage should go to jail.

He said he can’t hear out of his left ear. They need to sue the owner of that tank. That could have been deadly

I hope the owner of that garbage is arrested.

Man that driver was great under pressure! He knew exactly what to do. Those people need to be held accountable
