Fyron, if hydrogen is as safe as you say it is, I challenge you to go into a large enclosed chamber filled with hydrogen and oxygen and generate a electrical spark.

I don't think you would do it. I certainly wouldn't.

But yes, hydrogen is less dangerous if it is not in an enclose space and is not mixed with oxygen.

In fact hydrogen alone or mixed with an inert gas is no danger at all. In those conditions, I would not be concerned with generating an electrical spark. So change the conditions and hydrogen's dangerosity changes.

So, it all depends upon the conditions.
