You are MUCH safer with H than with gasoline....
PBS had a show in the late 70's about this. They took
small propane torch gas bottles and filled them with equal
BTU amounts of propane, gasoline and H. They then shot
each of them with an incendary bullet. The propane exploded
like a bomb. The gasoline generated a large fireball and the
H just produced a wispy flame that went up (H rises) as
it burned. They then asked what type of powered vehicle
you would want to be in in a bad crash......
