Did you guys know that the saying "Mad as a hatter" exists because of mercury? Factory workers that made hats back then used mercury a lot, (I believe for the colouring, can't remember) and due to the brain damages mercury causes the most common feature of hat makers was some form of mental instability.


Mercury is also why a lot of painters died young, _mercury was used to make a very vibrant white paint pigment all the way to ancient greece_
