Anyway he reckoned the frame had warmed up and expanded and as he put the new canister in it exploded, flame went up to his face and as he gasped he inhaled flame. He said he was OK, but started to feel bad. The called ambulance and he was taken to Bundy hospital, then airlifted to Brisbane where he stayed in IC for over a week with burns to his throat and lungs. He is recovering slowly , not working yet. He said he will never use them again........... It's up to you. randell
