There are other gasses to use.
And that don’t readily explode when exposed to an ignition source?
(I actually think hydrogen party balloons would be fun).
lol, I worked in one (dangerous) shop where a common prank would be to wait for someone to be in thier hood, upend a large styrofoam coffee cup from the break room on the edge of someone's bench, fill it with aceteline from a torch and spark it.
I’ve seen that prank too. Feels like an old fabricators’ rite of passage. Also probably where a lot of cases of tinnitus originate.
100% hydrogen isn't explosive. It's only when about 30% of oxygen is mixed does it become dangerous.
