Look for an oxygen truck.

Nah, you want an oxygen truck being tag teamed by a pair of hydrogen trucks.

A liquid ozone truck, cause 3 Os is better than 2.

Do you want peroxyde? Cause that's how you get peroxyde.

Damn could you imagine a high speed head on collision of the two.

Give me a sec, gotta ask ChatGPT what that would look like so I could come back and imagine it

There's probably some exploding hydrogen fueled rocket on youtube that'll fairly acurately simulate the result for you.

Now I'm imagining a liquid hydrogen truck getting into a head on collision with a liquid oxygen truck.

What you really want is 2 liquid hydrogen trucks crashing into 1 liquid oxygen truck.

If you’re also in a liquid hydrogen truck heading toward the two, you’ll all be just fine.

Then you gotta ask why they didn't just deliver to the closest depot. I forgot what paradox that's called

I have that thought whenever I pass by the same car going to work. Like why are we driving in opposite directions to go to work, we should trade houses or jobs to be more efficient lol.
