When experiencing this, many ordinary people panic, such as the TikTok account user @anisabrownies. Through an upload, this woman shows how to deal with a hissing gas cylinder.

"The story is that the gas in the stove ran out, I went to the food stall
So use gas to make a gas oven
Oh, when the regulator comes off it's crazy, it's just me and Az's kids at home
I was taken out because I was afraid the gas would spread throughout the room and cause electricity
It's called panic, using the ideas that are in Az's brain
"Just soak it in a tub filled with water so the gas runs out," wrote the owner of the TikTok account @anisabrownies in the video caption, quoted by BrilioFood on Wednesday (26/6).

A number of accounts on social media also re-shared the video belonging to netizen Anisa. One of them is the Instagram account @dekorasi_rumah_impian. However, this action to deal with hissing LPG gas cylinders actually received a number of scorn from other netizens.
"Honestly, it's more dangerous... because the exact same thing happened in my previous business... the employees didn't know how to handle gas leaks... they were soaked in water in the bathroom... suddenly after a few minutes an explosion occurred which ultimately burned down our outlet. .. and the employee finally died because he was burned by an invisible fire.. advice..if you encounter something like this, it is better to close the gas pipe tightly with your hand..and immediately move it to a safe open space. While in an open space, God willing, there is a risk of gas spreading to "fire triggers can be minimized... hopefully this will be useful," explained Instagram @nunu.noenoe.
"This method is wrong, ma'am"....the leaking gas won't explode immediately, take the leaking gas cylinder to an open room, not soak it in a tub of water because the gas will still come out and fill the room. If the gas cylinder leaks, open all the windows. and the door, don't panic, the gas can explode if the room is filled with gas, just a little spark can trigger an explosion, that's why you have to take it to an open room," said Instagram @champalet_15.
"It should have been taken to an open field because water doesn't absorb gas," wrote Instagram @bagusrizkisyahrial.

Apart from that, in the comments column of @anisabrownies' TikTok upload, there were also a handful of netizens who shared their experiences when faced with hissing gas cylinders. In fact, a netizen admitted that this experience traumatized him, you know.
"This is what made me traumatized by middle school gas now... as a result, I haven't used a stove for 3 years now so when I cook, I cook using Mejicom bun... it's safer and I'm used to it now... Mejicom 2... especially when cooking rice. side dishes," said TikTok @adz271120.
"I've never had that happen. The gas was leaking. It didn't smell too bad. Then I turned on the stove. As a result, fire came out in the tube hole, I automatically asked the neighbors for help because it was just the two of me and the kids," added TikTok @sukaMasak.
Watching a hissing leaking LPG gas cylinder can be a traumatic experience. Even so, you should first learn the right way to deal with it so you don't panic when you find a leaking gas cylinder in the future. Well, you can learn it from a netizen who works as a firefighter (damkar) on Tamsil Danuarta's YouTube account.
The first thing you have to do when you find a leaking LPG gas cylinder is to remove the regulator and move it away from the stove and other flammable objects. Next, you can immediately take the gas cylinder outside the house, preferably to a large and open area.
However, if the leaking gas cylinder produces a flame, immediately take a cloth or towel. Dampen a towel with water, then immediately wrap the gas cylinder with a wet towel. Leave the towel for a few minutes until the fire is completely extinguished.

Once the gas cylinder has calmed down again, you can check the source of the leak and fix it as needed. Usually, leaking LPG gas cylinders are caused by the valve not being closed tightly, the rubber seal being too stiff, and many more.
