Videos of gas canisters exploding don't dissuade people from buying electric.
That red canister that hit the guy was not a seat it was the gas canister that ruptured. The explosion type is non incendiary and not hot. This was not an electric car battery explosion.
The source video footage of this at a fuel station in Samarkand, Uzbekistan:

https://daryo.uz/en/2023/02/25/explosion-of-gas-cylinder-fitted-in-car-claims... The important thing here though is to not observe that this was a gas canister and that the video is intentionally misleading. Instead go find more electric car fires, only observe electric car fires.
The accurate and provable observation that the video referenced was an LPG canister exploding does not equate to being pro-electric. A human can observe this was a misleading video lying to us about a gas canister exploding, and still think electric cars are not as safe as petroleum fueled vehicles.
I believe this video representation is a lie, and not even a good one at that. This belief does not mean I am pro-electric vehicles.
