Reply to comment by Lined_the_Street in TIFU and almost killed my whole family by lizziebordensbae

It really depends on the type of gas and the amount that leaked. It doesn't blow up that easily

But leaving a stove top leaking gasses for hours in a poorly ventilated house (at least in America) is a major danger. Personally have seen this go wrong twice and almost a third time, its rare but still a serious concern

Yes of course it's dangerous, I was mostly reacting to OP thinking everyone would have died of the sister has slept in ;)

Obviously if you smell gas, do not use any electronic devices, phone chargers, switching the light, obviously no lighter or cigarettes, open the windows and cut the gas.
