Most times, people think that the vessel is in danger of exploding. There's
no chance of that happening and if used properly, it's not going to be
spewing scalding liquid in your face or any part of you. Sure you could rig
up a pressure cooker to explode but that would pretty nuts, right?

"If used properly" is the operative here. I once read on a toy inflatable
shark "Not to be used as a life preserver." You know some idiot died doing
just that. If you open a pressure cooker before it has discharged steam you
will get a nasty burn.
