That's totally wrong. Are you trying to scare people? Hundreds of millions of people have gas without ever having an issue with it. I'm one of them.
To answer the original OP question though......Yes. I would still do what I could to save the environment.
In what way is it wrong? It happens, and I have no reason to doubt the video. It's rare, but pumping explosive gases into the house is inherently a risk factor.
And natural gas is by definition a fossil fuel and bad for the environment, though there are certainly potential renewable sources for methane that I haven't seen utilities using yet.
If you aren't going to resort to a clothes line, I think the smallest impact (and the best performance and most flexibility,) is a heat pump dryer - pretty much a dryer with a dehumidifier buried in its heart.
