This same situation happened a few years back and literally ejected the
pilot from the Yak 52. It blew lines, tank and everything else. If someone
was in the back seat, they would not have made it because of the shrapnel.

Although there is no clear way to prevent someone unfamiliar with the
airplane with filling the pneumatic system with O2, putting a conspicuous
label at/around the external air fill port saying "compressed air only" in
big, bold, letters may help at some point in time.
