Historical incidents
On July 16, 1934, in Kummersdorf, Germany, a rocket engine using hydrogen peroxide exploded, killing three people. As a result of this incident, Wernher von Braun decided not to use hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizer in the rockets he developed afterward.
Several people received minor injuries after a hydrogen peroxide spill on board Northwest Airlines flight 957 from Orlando to Memphis on October 28, 1998 and subsequent fire on Northwest Airlines flight 7.[56]
During the Second World War, doctors in Nazi concentration camps experimented with the use of hydrogen peroxide injections in the killing of human subjects.[57]
Hydrogen peroxide was said to be one of the ingredients in the bombs that failed to explode in the July 21, 2005 London bombings.[58]
The Russian submarine K-141 Kursk sailed out to sea to perform an exercise of firing dummy torpedoes at the Pyotr Velikiy, a Kirov class battlecruiser. On August 12, 2000 at 11:28 local time (07:28 UTC), there was an explosion while preparing to fire the torpedoes. The only credible report to date is that this was due to the failure and explosion of one of the Kursk's hydrogen peroxide-fueled torpedoes. It is believed that HTP, a form of highly concentrated hydrogen peroxide used as propellant for the torpedo, seeped through rust in the torpedo casing. A similar incident was responsible for the loss of HMS Sidon in 1955
On August 16, 2010 a spill of about 10 US gallons (38 L) of cleaning fluid spilled on the 53rd floor of 1515 Broadway, in Times Square, New York City. The spill, which a spokesperson for the New York City fire department said was of Hydrogen Peroxide, shut down Broadway between West 42nd and West 48th streets as a number of fire engines responded to the hazmat situation. There were no reported injuries.[59]

"seeped through rust in the torpedo casing"... Geez. If there were ever a place I would be uncomfortable using rusty equipment, high explosive munitions would be at or very near the top of the list!
sprying 100%? sure hope the inter cooler is working over time!
flamable mix in a hot compressed ox rich environment... poof... :ft:
:umno:
even then, welcome to detonation town..
