A lava lamp takes about 2 hours to get going so I'd imagine he was trying to quicken the process. It's one of the drawbacks of the lava lamp, and I had thought of doing it, but I was afraid it might get damaged. I never thought it might damage me.
That cactus had been living and growing for probably a century, and some POS thinks it will be fun to just blast it away for no reason. I will never understand the mentality of people who get so much enjoyment out of pointless destruction. I'm actually glad the cactus got its revenge.
The chemist poisoned by dimethyl mercury wasn't dumb. She took all the precautions required by lab safety protocols based on information available at the time. It was a tragic accident. I was a lab chemist and field engineer at the time and have had to work with organic mercury, cyanide, chlorine gas and other extremely toxic substances without proper training. This incident scared the heck out of me. I no longer work in that field.
@@leonIdas002 As a field engineer and chemist testing large industrial metal finishing waste (hundreds of rusty barrels of unknown but presumably highly toxic wastewater from the 1970s in a pond leaching mercury into their septic leach field, while I'm dodging railroad cars full of chlorine gas and a random vent in their back lot vents hydrogen sulfide (powerful neurotoxin, fatal in 1 minute in concentration, highly flammable and corrosive enough that it totally dissolved 20 feet of steel chain link fence) It's like a box of chocolates. Ya never know what you're gonna get. My job was to find the bad stuff and figure out a way to make it go away. There are hundreds of thousands of industrial chemical compounds that we have zero knowledge of their immediate or long-term effects. And safety protocols are often implemented after unforseen tragedy. And inadequate training, because each case is unique enough to require a unique approach. So, yeah, I was a chemist who didn't know the effect of anything I encountered until I physically took a sample and analyzed it in the lab. Horrifically dangerous work for not much more than minimum wage today. I wonder how much of it I can attribute to my cancer today 30 years later.

The lava lamp is no mystery at all. In fact, stupidly, I fixed my son's lava lamp by doing the same thing (years ago before I knew it was dangerous). Luckily I had better luck. When the coil in the bottom gets moved, the lava is unable to heat up and the lamp stops working. I heated it up in a double pan of water just long enough to melt the wax and get the coil to go back to the bottom. It fixed it but some of the water inside evaporated.
Gloves should be chosen based on the function you expect them to provide given the circumstances. She failed to do this. She died from her own carelessness.
#9 I’d call one of the many SMART deaths - people study and train to the highest of levels only to die in the first months of employment or work in their field! Makes you wonder - why even try?!!
The guy who suffocated with his nose blocked by tampons to stop his snoring - surely he could just have opened his mouth to breathe? I mean whenever you have a cold your nose blocks and you breathe through your mouth?
I saw that robotic arm video,to say he was struck in the head is putting what really happened to the worker extremely lightly. It was like he got stuffed the way he went down it was brutal.
this is another recommend, gloves is a hot topic. i like g love. anyways, i told my dad if smoking is what killed me i hadnt lived my best life. my irony in life is that just because i said that, ill probably die from smoking. but alas, i did feel sincerely what i had said on that day in history.
Many of these were not dumb. Dying from mercury poisoning did to an accident is not a Darwin award. Like your last several vids the title is inappropriate. Thumbs down. Stories were great but your title is very disrespectful.

Poor Karen wasn't dumb.the gloves were crap. Mercury poisioning is horrific.
I agree. This was an accident.
Gloves should be chosen based on the function you expect them to provide given the circumstances.
She failed to do this.
She died from her own carelessness.
@Mark-gg6iy the gloves were supplied by the lab she worked in. After this the gloves were changed across the board re Mercury

He was also drunk and maybe lying on his face.
What's nuttier is it's the MOUTH GAPING OPEN causes the snoring! You snore through your MOUTH, not through your MOSE!

I mean, besides maybe some ear pain I think it is pretty cool. Just gotta control that volume.

I remember dying once because I forgot to breathe. Don't hold your breath on me making that mistake again, though.

It's obvious that the lava in the lava lamp wasn't moving fast enough.
