Touching mercury

Mercury is one of the only elements that's liquid at room temperature and it's also very dense. It's even denser than lead and is known to be very toxic, but as a liquid, it's kind of ok to touch.

WARNING: Do not touch mercury or play with mercury. It is toxic and an environmental hazard, so it must be handled appropriately and disposed of properly.

This is a perfect example of “don’t do it, please ignore the fact that I’m still doing it.”

The fact he had a cut further up his finger cracked me up.

He says with an exposed cut on his index finger.

Him: “As long as you don’t have any cuts it should be fine.”
The cut: *I am not here I am hallucination*

"As long as you dont have any cuts" he says with a cut right above the knuckle of the finger currently dipped in liquid mercury

Before touching mercury, put sanitizer on your hands. The sanitizer will automatically find cuts you didn’t even know existed, so you'll know whether it’s safe to touch mercury or not

Once in chemistry, a mercury thermometer was broken and the chemistry teacher started playing with the mercury, she was wearing her gold wedding ring, and mercury replaces gold in an alloy easily.

"Is touching mercury dangerous?"

Nile: Yesn't

[SuperHandsomeMuscularGuy]

"Kind of Ok"

Very reassuring, I'm gonna go crack open the thermometer.
