"It's okay to touch as long as you have no cuts," he says as he shows us the cut on his finger only centimeters away from the stuff. Who knew that science makes you bold.
I've touched mercury before, I'm surprised he didn't mention how strange it feels. It's like liquid, but you don't get wet. It also pushes your fingers out because of how dense it is.
Ive once dropped a mercury thermometer once and all the mercury spilled out. I just touched it and played with it and then wiped it off the floor because i was scared i get in trouble. 10 years later in high school i learned mercury is toxic? Imagine my face
It's also very heavy in weight. Mercury is a liquid metal, so holding a glassful like in this vid would feel like you're lifting a solid steel cylinder.

He doesn't need a cut to absorb it. Leave his finger in long enough it would happen. Worse yet if he put his fingers in but didn't wash them and unknowingly has gotten tiny bits of mercury trapped under his cuticles all day.
Fun Fact: A metal very similar to Mercury is Gallium! If you have the urge to play with a liquid metal that turns into a solid I recommend getting that. It's safe to touch with no toxic fumes. At room temperature it's solid but it can start melting in your hands, pretty cool.

Yes, I washed my skin several times after doing this, and I was careful I had no cuts or openings. No, it does not get trapped under the fingernails. At least it did not on me. The surface tension is far too great for that.
@@classicclassi6146 mercury doesnt hurt you unless you breath it in or have cuts allowing it jnto your body. In fact it acts actually keeps you from getting sick in all sorts of different ways as it is a common ingredient in all sorts of injectableš (dissolving into solution in Tattoo ink for example which keeps bacteria. Fungus or any other thing from being able to live within the liquid. Pretty cool right!?) Heres more info: Thiomersal: Organomercury compound and an a antiseptic agent About: Thiomersal, or thimerosal, also sold under the name merthiolate is an organomercury compound. It is a well-established antiseptic and antifungal agent. The pharmaceutical corporation Eli Lilly and Company named it Merthiolate. It has been used as a preservative in vaccines, immunoglobulin preparations, skin test antigens, antivenins, ophthalmic and nasal products, and tattoo inks.
Mercury was used as a laxative in the 1700's. This is specifically one of the ways that researchers know exactly where the Lewis and Clark expedition set up camp in some places because they found traces of mercury in the ground at the campsites. Basically, you drink a slug of mercury and you sit on the toilet, because it is so massive that it effectively pushes it's way through your intestines and blows out your bowel. Not recommended in these days, but it didn't kill people to do that back in those days. The vapor is far more dangerous and a mercury salt compound like mercuric chloride is FAR more deadly than elemental mercury because the salt compound can react with many other compounds and get locked into your body much more readily than the elemental mercury.
I remember breaking old thermometers as a kid and collecting this stuff. I used to roll it around in my hands all the time. How I made it to adulthood I'll never know
There are different types of mercury. Some are like this, where they're relatively safe to touch. Others can be absorbed into your skin THROUGH latex gloves. And, it just so happens that those tend to be the more toxic variants of mercury. Look up the channel Chubbyemu. He has a video of a researcher who had the unfortunate experience of getting some of that mercury onto her hand.
It's only for UA-cam's algorithm, if anything which youtube states as dangerous, even though there is a proof that it isn't, youtube will report any video recommending the certain activity.
This is more educational and less stupid than TikTok Actually, I don't know what more in TikTok but I think all things in TikTok just be stolen from youtube, dancing video, a weird teen doing weird things and video that full with effects

@@ericae.6547 Well in this case, there is a through-line. The Romans named the planet after the messenger god Mercury, as it was the fastest-moving planet. Then, in alchemy, pure metals were associated with celestial objects, and quicksilver was associated with Mercury, to the point the name of the planet completely replaced the old name of the metal. (If you're curious, Venus was associated with copper, Mars with iron, Jupiter with tin, Saturn with lead, the Moon with silver, and the Sun with gold)
when I was a kid we used to break thermometers just to get the mercury out of them and play with it. I used to break multiple ones and watch the ball of mercury join other balls to make a bigger ball and slide it around the table. No internet or cellphones back then so everything we did was safe and healthy.

If you try to stir it, like it was water, that doesn't work. Your fingers just push through it frictionlessly, and the stuff doesn't seem to spin in the container. Or, if it did, I could not tell any motion. It is unbelievably heavy, trying to pour it back into the bottle, or to lift the bowl.
Yes, I washed my skin several times after doing this, and I was careful I had no cuts or openings. No, it does not get trapped under the fingernails. At least it did not on me. The surface tension is far too great for that.
Very interesting!!

Thiomersal, or thimerosal, also sold under the name merthiolate is an organomercury compound. It is a well-established antiseptic and antifungal agent. The pharmaceutical corporation Eli Lilly and Company named it Merthiolate. It has been used as a preservative in vaccines, immunoglobulin preparations, skin test antigens, antivenins, ophthalmic and nasal products, and tattoo inks.

Mercury: wants to make a supersonic man out of you
Mercury was used as a laxative in the 1700's. This is specifically one of the ways that researchers know exactly where the Lewis and Clark expedition set up camp in some places because they found traces of mercury in the ground at the campsites.
Basically, you drink a slug of mercury and you sit on the toilet, because it is so massive that it effectively pushes it's way through your intestines and blows out your bowel.
Not recommended in these days, but it didn't kill people to do that back in those days.
The vapor is far more dangerous and a mercury salt compound like mercuric chloride is FAR more deadly than elemental mercury because the salt compound can react with many other compounds and get locked into your body much more readily than the elemental mercury.
This phenomenon is called "The call of the void"

There are different types of mercury. Some are like this, where they're relatively safe to touch.
Others can be absorbed into your skin THROUGH latex gloves. And, it just so happens that those tend to be the more toxic variants of mercury.
Look up the channel Chubbyemu. He has a video of a researcher who had the unfortunate experience of getting some of that mercury onto her hand.

@@ericae.6547 Well in this case, there is a through-line. The Romans named the planet after the messenger god Mercury, as it was the fastest-moving planet. Then, in alchemy, pure metals were associated with celestial objects, and quicksilver was associated with Mercury, to the point the name of the planet completely replaced the old name of the metal.
(If you're curious, Venus was associated with copper, Mars with iron, Jupiter with tin, Saturn with lead, the Moon with silver, and the Sun with gold)
when I was a kid we used to break thermometers just to get the mercury out of them and play with it. I used to break multiple ones and watch the ball of mercury join other balls to make a bigger ball and slide it around the table. No internet or cellphones back then so everything we did was safe and healthy.
But It’s not healthy.
