Yes the burning charcoal in a confined space like a garage is dangerous. It produces a byproduct of CO carbon monoxide. CO will kill you and you might not even realize you are getting sick.
You are better off getting an infrared propane fired heater. They need ventilation but are much safer to use in a garage.
Do a google search for carbon monoxide poisoning.

1. Carbon monoxide is produced by burning charcoal. Like leaving the car running inside & closing the door of the garage.
2. Gas fumes from nearby mowers etc.could ignite.
Bad Idea.

Yes, extremely dangerous. The fumes from it are highly toxic, and can kill you. Read the warnings on the bag.

Have you lost your friggin' mind? Don't have a big brain fart like that. Yes it's dangerous. It's flammable, it makes toxic smoke and it sparks..
Come on man, use your common sense.

anything that burns creates carbon monoxide and will kill you if not ventilated properly
