  • What I have here looks just like a generic rock, but it's actually pretty dangerous. All of the white stuff is actually asbestos, which is horrible to breathe in.

    I remember working a warehouse job a few years back and walking outside to find the management had a 17 year old kid cleaning up piles of asbestos with no safety gear. He had no idea what it was, i told him and gave them a dressing down about their carelessness.
    They fired me for nothing not long after.

    This stuff is still EVERYWHERE, old wallpaper, old carpet glue, old drywall, old plaster and lathe, old bakelite plastics, old oven mitts and old pin cushions, old hair dryers, old appliances that involved heat of any kind, old lamps, and soo much more.
    Edit: I'm not trying to cause any panic, while yes, asbestos is a dangerous material, and you should avoid it as much as possible. 90% of the people who were affected worked with it long-term, like years of daily exposure. If it's not being damaged or disturbed, it is not that much of a risk. If you are doing renovations to any older building, research and test what you are removing to see if it has asbestos. common things like popcorn ceiling, textured paint, wallpaper, carpets (specifically the glue), drywall, plaster, tiles, or vinyl flooring can have asbestos.

      The asbestos fibers irritate and scar lung tissue, causing the lungs to become stiff. This makes it difficult to breathe. As asbestosis progresses, more and more lung tissue becomes scarred. Eventually, your lung tissue becomes so stiff that it can't contract and expand normally. Its not a Cancer

      Fun fact. Old gas and oil pipelines where coated with a tar like coating that contains asbestos. When the pipeline isdigged out, usually for repair purposes, it is often beaten off with brass hammer, sending debris everywhere.

    That stuff killed my uncle. He was an Academy Award winning sound producer. He sound produced all of the James Bond series throughout its first 20+ years, became close personal friends with Sean Connery, and did over 350 movies in his career.
    When he died my aunt sued the studio (Pinewood Studios in London) to have them remove their asbestos. She didn’t sue for money, but rather, for attention. And her lawsuit was “heard round-the-world”., which was her only intent. Before long other buildings, schools, offices, factories, etc. began going through the asbestos removal process.
    Before flying airplanes my background was ships and I have two unlimited mariner’s licenses. We used to use asbestos valve and pump seal packing all the time - still likely used today. But it’s imbedded in clay and is very safe to handle.

He was also up for the Academy Award for Diamonds are Forever that same year.
      Interesting story about the latter. He took my mother to the Sneak Preview of Diamonds are Forever (for cast, crew, and their families). Back then they used the master film at sneak previews. Unhappy with the film’s sound, my uncle snuck the master out of the theater afterwards, drove straight to the studios, and my mother said he disappeared for three days. He then allowed the film to be copied for public release. Obviously he did a good job because he was up for an Academy Award for it! Anyway, here he was:

      It's killing my friend's dad right now. He used to work in construction, especially doing remodels and repairs. Lots of old houses with asbestos, and little to no safety gear. I'm not sure if he just didn't know the hazard, or if the management just didn't give a fuck (common around here). But anyways he has asbestosis and late stage lung cancer. He wasn't supposed to live past March of last year but he's still kicking a year later. It's also suspected that his wife, who died from cancer about 10 years ago, may have gotten it from handling his clothes when doing laundry. My friend is only 21 and already lost one parent, and it's only a matter of time before he loses the other. Shit is very serious, kills and ruins lives. Stay safe out there.

    More often would lead to a condition known affectionately as asbestosis. This disease acts a lot like emphysema in that breathing capacity declines markedly as the condition progresses. But another symptom is bleeding lungs like TB. The fibers work their way into the lungs and cause continuous inflammation and scarring. Eventually you just die from lack of oxygen. My dad was a boilermaker and had lengthy exposure to asbestos. He was diagnosed with it would have killed him had he not died of a massive heart attack first.

      As long as you don't breath it it's not that harmful, some people still live with asbestos in their houses and it's not considered a hazard as long as it stays encased.
      I had some in my apartment (luckily I knew about it because we have mandatory diagnostics for it, as well as for lead), I removed them myself but I also could have left it untouched (it was encased in tiles, as long as they don't wear and start to emit dust it's still considered "safe" by the authorities).
      Disposing of it was another story, I had to ask for special bags to store it and there are only a handful of disposing places that accept these, I believe they seal them later and bury them forever in specially designed dumps like they do with incinerator's waste, there is no recycling for this stuff and you can't crush them or put it in a normal dump as it would degrade over time and the asbestos would end up released in the environment.

In other words, the asbestos in the air gave her cancer, just from the tiny amount in the air.

    I like that he's not just hype like some channels, he's right. It would probably never leave his lungs. Silica is glass btw, so it is made of microscopic glass spears. When it manages to deposit on the lung tissue it stabs the tissue. Short term no big deal, but the lung cleans itself using chemicals and mucus. The glass is basically immune to chemical attack and gets stuck so mucus can't move it out. So it stabs the tissue over and over creating scar tissue that eventually can develop into cancer.
