Gas leaks are nothing to take lightly and that was evident just a few days ago out on the east coast. This link will take you to the story and all kinds of support material, photos, video and audio from the event.
The important thing to remember here, is that this fire department had a lot of resources on-hand at this event so that they were able to deal with this near tragic explosion. If they had not had the amount of apparatus on scene that they did, the outcome for the firefighters, and the civilians that they evacuated before the explosion, could have been much worse. There is a good reason why the fire service brings a lot of resources to emergency scenes, and this is just more proof that it makes sense and changes outcomes for civilians and firefighters.
