Liquid hydrogen IS used as a fuel. It's used in rockets - and some cars.
Rockets are propelled into space using liquid or solid propellants. Liquid propellants typically consist of liquid oxygen or hydrogen as the oxidizer and a fuel such as liquid hydrogen or kerosene. Solid propellants are a mixture of fuel and oxidizer that are combined into a solid form.
The space shuttle used a combination of solid rocket boosters and liquid fuel. The solid rocket boosters were powered by a mixture of powdered aluminum and ammonium perchlorate, while the main engines used liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen as fuel.
There are two three types of fuel used in rockets 1) Solid fuel - an aluminum powder used for an initial boost into space. 2) Liquid fuel - usually super-cold liquid hydrogen and oxygen is used is the Space Shuttle's main engines during launch. 3) Hypergolic fuel - Monomethylhydrazine and Nitrogen Tetroxide does not need a source of ignition. It is mainly used for maneuvering in space.
No, the Saturn V rocket did not use solid fuel. It used liquid propellants in its first stage (RP-1 and liquid oxygen) and upper stages (liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen).
The Saturn V rocket used a combination of liquid oxygen and RP-1, a refined form of kerosene, as fuel. These propellants were used in the first stage of the rocket to provide the thrust needed for liftoff.
liquid Hydrogen + liquid Oxygen

It would be great, but hydrogen is horribly unstable.
Liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen
Liquid Hydrogen
It used liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen.
The name of a common rocket fuel is liquid hydrogen, which is often used in combination with liquid oxygen. There are also other types of rocket fuels including solid fuels and hybrid fuels, but liquid hydrogen is one of the most commonly used.

Hydrogen gas cannot be directly installed in a carburetor designed for liquid fuel. However, hydrogen can be used as a fuel source in a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, where it reacts with oxygen to produce electricity that powers the vehicle's electric motor.
Frozen hydrogen is still in experimental phase,but liquid hydrogen is being used as fuel in rockets.
