Default Cutting up old galvanised water tanks

I need to remove two old water tanks from the loft. One redundant one up
there was bad enough, but now we have a new plastic replacement so there's
two of them up there doing nothing.

They won't fit through the loft hatch. What is the best way to cut them up?
I don't fancy doing it with a hack saw! I have a 9" grinder with some thin
metal cutting disks. I also have a cheap jigsaw and some metal blades (I
think).

I'm guessing the grinder is easiest and fastest. How safe is it to cut up
the tanks with an electric grinder in the loft space (sparks)? Is it viable
to cut it up with a jigsaw?

Any advice very much appreciated. Thanks.


Been recently discussed here. Enter the following in google.
