About 70 years old, putting down the 4 lane, oxygen going to both nostrils and smoking a cigarette with the windows up.

He risked a pure oxygen explosion in a moving vehicle , which would have a strong likelyhood of injuring or killing other motorists , just because he's too lazy to quit ?

But it's just a simple matter of willpower if that guy really wanted to quit , right ?

The addiction is so strong, his mind so weak and his error in judgement in ever starting that yes, he's risking his life in more ways than one, with the effects of his lifelong smoking incredibly obvious.

Now, wasn't it you with the mentality that smokers should be able to blow smoke in public ?

One thing tho- oxygen isnt explosive- we all do drive around in a big maltov cocktail- it would just help it burn better if things did catch fire.
Maybe we should all just stay away from gasoline/bombs?

Knightia , I beg to differ .
Pure(medical grade) oxygen is extremely explosive according to the firefighting training I received in the service . It is also sensitive to petroleum products as well , which is why you can't grease the threads before putting a regulator on the bottle .

I watched an instructor place an expended OBA canister , which generates pure oxygen , into a water filled barrel and then squirt a small amount of grease into the barrel with a remote device from a safe distance . The resulting explosion ripped the barrel to shreds , and that was a result of just the tiny residual amount of O2 in the cannister . Why did you think they have "No smoking" signs in hospital rooms that have O2 dispensers on the wall ? A spark is enough to ignite that stuff , the O2 we breathe every day is in too small a concentration to ignite on it's own .

Data , yes , I see no problem with smoking outdoors . Anyone downwind is perfectly free to move upwind if the smoker was there first . If the non-smoker was there first then the smoker is obligated to move downwind . It's called compromise , a concept that obviously doesn't exist on your planet .

I have heard of this - but i still thought the oxygen nothing more then a way to speed burn of - other fuels? But you could be right.
flamable? worse then the gas& other thingsthemselfs?

Because it will increase the fire, by provideing more o2 too the fuel? Or so i though

Intresting thnks - i do rememebr a few o2 explosions involving various ppls firefiters etc now that you mention these things - its to early
