Did I miss something here? We're talking rubber with steel braid?
Maybe 3 feet long?
It'll make a loud "Pssst" noise and wiggle around a bit won't it?
Then it'll stop wiggling and go "whoosh" until you turn it off?
I've never seen a hard line break but we'd occasionally drop something
hot and/or heavy on those 1? inch hoses when I was a helper back in
the pipeline days and it's like a fighter with a pretty good punch and a
30 foot reach but no control. You might get hit but probably not.
About as scary as a grease pit half full of carbon monoxide.
