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.

I'm fuzzy and since water is incompressible, "pressure" may not have the same meaning on water than on other substance
