"The One That Got Away"

Disclaimer:

The following account of a wayward gas cylinder was found about 20 years ago in an old newsletter from a safety organization.  The story was already several years old.   The organization has asked that it not be attributed to them because they don't know/can't find the original account and don't remember where this actually took place.

Nevertheless, it is still a good example of the forcefulness of a compressed gas cylinder and why it is important to handle one with caution.
