Beginner at Soldering

I have never soldered before and want to learn. I am not doing this for any projects but just want to start learning how to do this.

I found this video on Youtube and it seems to be good.

Before I run off and buy the hardware and practice how to solder, please feel free to give me any tips.

What type of fuel I should buy (propane, mapp, etc…)? Is propane and mapp the only two types of fuel?

Also, is there ever a danger that the fuel can explode in my hand? Is there a proper way to shut off and store the fuel can?

Thanks
