Water is pressurized. The pressure is a function of gravity and depth, but that is still a lot of pressure.

my english is flawed, I was trying to say that. Water is not pressurized but feel scarier than air for most people, so they go care free around compressed gases.

Water is pressurized. However, it is not compressed. That's an important distinction.
Worst case with compressed air is a total disintegration of the tank, the room it's in, and the rest of the house along with the occupants.
