In this video I use deadly fork-derived chromium trioxide to turn vodka (Ethanol) into vinegar (Acetic acid) through the Jones oxidation reaction while accidentally making lava and nearly having a heart attack.

Disclaimer: Please DO NOT recreate anything dangerous you see me do in this video, even though through it I make many efforts to emphasize just how deadly things I do are, I know that some people won't listen to reason and try to do this anyway, in which case I won't take any responsibility for their actions.
Also, excuse me for my poor speaking, English is not my native language so I have some trouble with pronunciation, in case you don't understand something there are always subtitles made by me.

    From a dead battery like the ones that people will use the acid is around 10-15%- depending of how many cells are dead. filter a punch of times, "used" electrolite will have a lot of shit in it. Use of teflon tape on the joints works better.
