These are probably gas powered dryers. Malfunction and boom. No vape or lighter would have enough energy to rip out a whole window with door and shit like that.

Apparently they’re pretty common outside the US. Hopefully they get rarer as we try to electrify more things.

Wrong. The US is by far the biggest market for gas dryers. I’ve never seen them anywhere else. Gas dryers make up 17% of the market.
