Mythbuster on TV did everything to see what would happen.Nothing.
However....especially FD.Static electricity in cold dry days is a true problem. Touch your **** when get out so as not to when the gas is pumping ,vapors on the way out could light up if you spark next to the fill bung.

that happend down the road from my apartment, older guy on a cell phone, stuff catches fire, fire gets put out reallllll fast thanks to the fire station being less then 700 feet away from said gas station.
gas station shuts down for a week to recover.
odd stuff.
good thing nothing exploded, it was kind of scary seeign how the pump ghad burn marks on it and how the metal on said pumos looked a little melted.
