A gas explosion is the terrifying result of flammable gas leaking from a compromised container that becomes ignited by a variety of triggers, and the subsequent injuries are almost always severe, if not fatal. A tragic explosion can happen in the home, on the job, indoors, or outdoors, and a number of causes can lead to the dangerous leak or ignition.
When the negligence of a responsible party–such as a faulty manufacturer of equipment to store or transport flammable gas, an irresponsible employer, or careless excavator–causes a gas explosion that injures you or a loved one, the injuries are usually too catastrophic to simply rely on the at-fault parties to take responsibility without a thorough investigation and subsequent threat of litigation.
Injuries from gas explosions are unique because of the greater likelihood they will endanger multiple organ systems all at once. The blast from a gas explosion creates a massive amount of scorching heat, a cloud of debris hurled in all directions, and a wave of over-pressurization that can rupture crucial organs. These dangers from the blast can have catastrophic, if not fatal, effects on the human body.
