China: Man Hurls Burning Gas Cylinder Out of Home, Bystander Shuts Valve by Hand

This is the heart-stopping moment that a Chinese resident hurled a burning liquefied gas cylinder out of his home as flames burst from the valve, triggering a chaotic scramble before another man intervened. On December 29, 2025, in Shandong, China, a household gas tank suddenly caught fire inside a room. As thick flames shot upward, a man rushed toward the cylinder, grabbed it with both hands and threw it out through the doorway to keep the blaze away from the house. He then snatched up a basin of water and prepared to douse the fire. Moments later, a second man approached calmly, stepped close to the still burning tank and quickly shut the valve by hand, stopping the fuel flow. The video ended with the flames fully extinguished and both men standing safely outside.
