Is hydrogen fuel dangerous?

Question

When the Hindenburg airship approached its dock in Lakehurst, N.J., on May 6, 1937, the blimp that held the passenger decks aloft was filled with hydrogen. This element, the simplest -- and most abundant -- in the universe, has one proton with a single electron revolving around it. Hydrogen also weighs the least of all the elements atomically. It can pack quite a punch, creating vast amounts of energy when oxygen and an ignition source are introduced. When the Hindenburg exploded, the world witnessed the power of hydrogen.

Answer 1

Not too bad in the form we would use it as fuel. The worst case scenario is the tank would burst, but this danger is no greater a risk then a normal gas tank bursting.

Answer 2

Yes. Hydrogen fuel is very dangerous it can cause big explosions. Those explosions will cause a disaster for a long time. That is a dagereous fuel.

Answer 3

Hydrogen is not that dangerous at all. We drink water which is partly hydrogen , so it is obviously not that harmful. If it leaks or spills, it will evaporate and disperse much faster than gasoline, which also minimizes the risk of explosions.

Answer 4

It's the best way to use hydrogen fuel.

If helium or nitrogen is placed between hydrogen and air then it's not dangerous.

If it becomes useful then environment has found a friend...
