The Rules

Two thousand liters of helium gas were allegedly released as a result of the rifle striking the machine.

No not really. It was release as a result of the same idiot who brought his rifle into the room later pressing the emergency shutdown, thereby quenching the magnet and dumping the helium. What a dumb fuck.
