Contrary to what the movies might show, it's a bit difficult to make a natural gas leak go BOOM. You'd need just the right mixture with air, which is tough to achieve in an open space. If it were to catch fire you'd had more of a flame like a fire table, size depending on how big the leak was.

In no even can I imagine anyone finding you in any way liable.
Plus they make exposed gas pipes pretty tough, short of taking an axe to the pipe you're not going to cause any problems.
