Is it possible there was a propane powered forklift in the building?
If there was a forklift chances are 99.9% it was propane. And the owners probably had a rack of spare tanks.
Paper dust is highly flammable ... electric fork trucks are a thing
Yes, every kind of dust can be explosive, even, although it doesn't seem there would be that much it might have contributed. How did the young men get "propane flash burns"? Not from Bic lighters.
Yes. At a company I used to work at - all the people in the warehouse would have to climb up into the racks and clean/dust off all the shelves and boxes.
I'd pass through to get a smoke... it was odd to see people in PPE climbing all over.
I mean that would be the response at my house if a snake was seen inside...lol... but that seemed excessive to me at work. 😂
It's possible...
Usually around paper and other combustibles they aren't allowed
