I know somebody whose house blew up from a gas leak, killed one of the tenants. The one that the landlord paid $7 an hour to help change the hot water heater and did it wrong. The ATF investigated and declared an oopsie. Dead guys dumbass wife despite knowing there's a gas leak and being told not to light a cigarette lit a cigarette.

I've changed a gas water heater before, and I can confirm that you have to be a dumbass not to be real careful to do it right, especially if you live in the house!

The city I changed them in would have had me crucified if I killed someone with my work, the homeowner gets a pass.
