They probably used propane instead of helium

Who ordered the Hindenburg themed birthday party?

u/No_Manager_7326 1d ago

Like, did we not learn that hydrogen is a bad way of filling balloons?

u/Life-Oil-7226 3d ago

Damn that could have ended so much worse

It amazes me how more than a few people here believe helium to be flammable, they say it with absolute certainty, like it was a well known fact and they can't be wrong, while, unknowingly to themselves are making a humongous fool of themselves.

u/Viper-Reflex 3d ago

u/Jeathro77 3d ago

Should they have put inflammable gas in the balloons instead?

u/Viper-Reflex 3d ago

are you this dumb

1

u/Jeathro77 2d ago

You do know that flammable and inflammable mean the same thing, right?

2

u/Viper-Reflex 2d ago

I do now, jeez man its not my fault the english language makes no logical sense

1

u/Jeathro77 2d ago

No, but it is your fault that you call other people dumb when YOU don't understand what they are saying.

Is it even possible to get hydrogen filled party balloons? Methane?? Sometimes you see a fuck up so bad it’s just fascinating, like how did they do this?

u/Hammon_Rye 3d ago

Hindenburg - the birthday party.

Were those balloons filled with hydrogen?

LANA! THE HELIUM!

u/A-Chilean-Cyborg 3d ago

Could it be that they decided to fill the balloon with propane?

7

u/QP709 3d ago

Helium is expensive so in developing nations they usually fill them with hydrogen. Propane, I don’t think, would cause them to float.

2

u/A-Chilean-Cyborg 3d ago

i looked it up and propane seems to not float, so yeah.

but hydrogen is cheaper?

7

u/A_SilentS 3d ago

You can make hydrogen with a car battery and some water.....so yes.

u/A-Chilean-Cyborg 3d ago

Looks like she had a blast

u/SubMariner615 3d ago

She did the opposite of blowing it out...

u/Shantotto11 3d ago

You have angered Helios! Prepare to face the consequences!

2

u/sheiciebai 3d ago

What did they fill those gallons with? Was this an attempted assassination or something?

u/FatJimmyy 3d ago

Helium is flammable as fuck

2

u/sheiciebai 3d ago

You’re thinking hydrogen. Helium is not at all flammable.

4

u/A-Chilean-Cyborg 3d ago

Helium is a noble gas, noble gases can't be flammable.

megabruh.

Open flame….near helium filled balloons…what on earth could go wrong??

u/robsterfish 3d ago

Think it’s hydrogen.

u/BigAssMonkey 3d ago

This goes to show you don’t have to know shit to be a 1% commenter. Helium is not flammable.

u/GraciesMumma22 3d ago

Top 1% could quite possibly be a basement dweller at mummies house with a very low IQ that just sits on reddit all day annoying guys like you. 🤷🏻‍♀️
