So, basically a youtuber that plays with mercury?
From the clips at the end of the video where he cuts open a balloon full of mercury and it goes splashing everywhere, right out of the bucket all over his driveway - he doesn't seem very qualified to be handling an extremely toxic heavy metal, and I don't want to think about what the next property owner is going to face, especially if the house uses well water, or worse, is near a public well's aquifer.
Did I mention that mercury evaporates in air? So if he's been doing anything in enclosed spaces, his house is contaminated?
Anyone want to place bets on whether all the things he gets mercury on are properly handled like the hazardous waste they are, or he just collects what he can, shrugs, and throws the rest in the trash?
- quickthrower2 3y agoWow. I was simply thinking what does he do with the mercury waste? What should/can he do? I guess his house would need to be treated like an ex-meth lab
- thendrill 3y agoWhat is your point. He is showing what happens so people don't have to? He still a thousand times better than an avarge software engineer.

- sasoon 3y agoThat is different form of mercury, bonded with carbon, which is easily absorbed by body.
- jackjeff 3y agoWow. That video is mind blowing. Pure mercury is nowhere near as toxic nor dangerous as the Dimethylmercury from the other video.
- jowdones 3y ago>> Pure mercury is nowhere near as toxic nor dangerous as the Dimethylmercury from the other video. I know, it takes man's interference to create this shit. Chemistry is a wild beast, like this other monstrosity created by man: https://youtu.be/dAhiqGZCwNQ?si=ITR3lsEFmzzbJFsg https://youtu.be/dAhiqGZCwNQ?si=ITR3lsEFmzzbJFsg
- userbinator 3y agoElementary mercury is really not that toxic. Organomercury compounds, on the other hand, are scary.
