id just show them on the bottle where it says "non-flamable gas"

i had to prove to my auto tech teacher that it wasnt flamable once by aiming the bottle at his face and cracked the valve open with a lit lighter in front of it... scared the hell out of him but after that he realized that its non flamable lol.

Second to last picture. Look in the trunk, it's not going to be a pretty blue bottle, it's charred black now. You can see it tilted about 45 degrees up in the air with the metal strap.

Yes, it is non-flam. Its an oxidizer which means it increases the rate of oxidation reactions and combustion is an oxidation reaction.
