Mythbusters tv show plugged a water heater, put it in a little shed in a big parking lot, blew the shed pretty good and got over 300' up with the tank, looked like a rocket taking off.
Seen one that had blown when I was a kid. Went through the main floor, through the ceiling & out the roof. When I saw it it was embedded in the roof of the house across the street. The house it blew out of was condemned.
I drain mine once a year. Hook up a hose & run it empty.

Bike got towed to Vasalia HD...she's ok but my wife had to open her big mouth and suggest she ride with us for the next 2 weeks on my bike.
Some of those turns in King's Canyon are pretty tight! Glad she is OK.
