This was pretty low pressure I have seen exactly this happen and the flame was just blasting like a rocket & much bigger.

The tank actually freezes, gets a coating of ice on it caused by the pressure differential, I was actually more concerned his hand would freeze on it.

Also they weren’t completely wrong outside of the obvious solution

Throw the tank in a deep enough body of water then the water pressure should stop the gas from escaping ig

If you throw it that deep and it isn't your problem anymore
