I’ve seen that once…. 😂

Someone help me out. Is this photoshopped or is there a leak that allows oxygen into the line?? I've worked pipeline where people, much more skilled than I, cut and welded natural gas lines but don't understand how this is a thing without some major malfunction

Thank you,
MrSmith

That’s the real deal, I took that pic. It has something to do with electricity going back through the ground…. I think.

Something happened outside on the power pole and caused it is what I was later told.

If you would have loosened off one those flares you would have turned into a fireball

It’s low pressure it wouldn’t be a big deal, that’s why they can look for leaks with a lighter

Main panel lost it's ground somehow, making the gas line the only path for ground to follow. (Assuming waterlines are plastic coming into the home) all that current going down the gas line back to the meter to find a good ground cause all kinds of issues.

So the feed line is energized and acting like a resistance heating element? No fire inside the tube?

How would the main panel loose it's ground ? Do copper water lines help in this situation??
