REAL LIFE NEWS: COWS BLOW UP THEIR OWN SHED
by Hazed
Cows in Germany have shown just how dangerous methane gas can be by causing an explosion which blew up their cow shed.
90 cows in a shed went about their usual daily business of belching and farting, building up high levels of methane in the shed. It is reckoned that one cow released up to 500 litres of methane a day so 90 cows can cause quite a build-up.
Then, as the news report says, “a static electric charge caused the gas to explode with flashes of flames.” The resulting explosion damaged the roof of the shed and injured one of the cows.
Dangerous creatures, these cows!
