Exploding aerosol cans spreading fires

I have seen fires spread by exploding aerosol cans, but don't have any good photos to demonstrate the phenomenon.

I have heard someone testify that it is impossible for an exploding can containing propane and mineral spirits to spread a fire from point A to point B. I would appreciate it if anyone with a photo showing otherwise would contact me off list.

Thanks
