You don't have a double hull; you've got liquid hydrogen only one hull
away.

Which should be about the same hazard as standing in the same room with a liquid hydrogen storage tank. In other words, not much because the leakage rate is pretty low. The liquid form leaks at a much slower rate than the gas form.

If you could manage to get a metastable metallic form, it wouldn't leak at all. High TL required for that I am sure.
