Well, one of the biggest problems first off is that CO2 is gay, and Nitrogen is better...CO2 is a liquid gas (not flammable) and when you lay the bottle down, you get more liquid then gas because the liquid settles at the bottom (now the side) of the bottle. This also can ruin your regulators because they weren't meant to have all that liquid coming through them. It also causes your lines and valves to get all fucked up and corrodes the shit outta everything.
I didn't think anybody was still running CO2. I rock my nitrogen bottle like that, but it's fully enclosed and strapped into a very tight cradle that I have to pry the bottle out of when I change it. That truck in the picture could very well kill somebody if that bottle that's open ever comes off. The bottle that's capped wouldn't be a problem, it's when the valve on the bottle gets busted off is when it becomes a giant rocket!
