Lithium metal explodes, or violently burns, when it comes in contact with water.

[thetwitch]

litium reacts with water and I think it also oxidises itself so the flame could not be put out

Remember, Castle Bravo was a disaster because the scientists thought that the lithium-7 atoms in the lithium deuteride compound would be inert.

[DocWolph]

..and it immediately turned into a steam volcano.

The ever-growing pestilence of know-nothing narration says dropping into water extinguishes the fire. It does not. Lithium batteries can still burn under water. But the containment factor is still useful.

Water is a reactive agent that makes the problem worse.

Oh you poor innocent child
Trust me, that is NOT water

The Scene with the Arrow pointing isnt Lithium.... Its a Hydraulic oil what bürste and this burnt the conplete building down

[steverose]

And this is how we'll save the environment?

In Germany they have the most up to date technology and a fucking dude with a hammer has to puncture it? That was so dangerous 😂. Couldn’t have spent an hour making a devise to puncture it safely from a distance?

[MrHitchikerOz]

Water DOES NOT extinguish lithium fires - if anything it accelerates them...

[ThePerson-dgbq]

because you know, lithium is very known to be completely safe and unreactive with

“Effectively extinguishing the fire” — ummm… it kept on combusting, past the video cut!

[christopherdonahue]

I saw this exact video months ago and then it said this was from Vietnam

[electriceye]

If so flammable, why put the in cars ??

[ResistorArcs]

Once i overcharged a li ion battery and it started giv8ng that smell i just threw it off my bqlcony and watched it explode it was around new years eve so i did not care about the explosion

[heart.doctor]

It probably is actually epoxy :) :) haha
