  • In this video we chat about war crimes, light some fires and look at a wholesome side of white phosphorus, all while trying not to be poisoned. It helps to limit exposure if you don't smear the poison onto your skin. Subreddit: / explosionsandfire

    When my video was nearly done I happened to watch Nile Red's video on WP (I haven't since it first came out) and gosh we make similar points, its basically the same video except his cinematography is better and that i'm hotter. But, pls don't say i cheated ok i try to make unique content but i am not creative it seems

    In my 1st year at uni there was a PhD candidate who worked on an experiment that required white phosphorous. Then, in the middle of that he left for an international internship for several months, leaving the phosphorous safely in a glass jar under water in his lab cupboard ... Obviously the water evaporated and the phosphorous got exposed to the air.
    Fortunately this happened while the best lab technician I've ever met was there. He quickly realised 1) whose cupboard it was that had started smoking and what chemical was likely stored in there, and 2) that said cupboard was on wheels. He shouted to the professor to immediately open the emergency doors and everyone else to clear a path and wheeled the cupboard outside. He then calmly walked back inside, called the front desk followed by the fire brigade. When the fire fighters arrived he told them to come enjoy the fire (it was just the cupboard burning, but quite spectacularly). Putting it out wasn't useful, just let it burn up. He had called the fire brigade just in case something would go wrong and the fire spread.

    In about 1987, I was in a high school chemistry class. During a lab exercise we used filter paper with white phosphorus. My lab partner put the filter paper in the trash can at the end of class which was the last class of the day. Apparently that evening the traces on the filter paper caught fire and luckily the janitor put it out after it burned an entire lab desk and area. The next day we were asked about it and fessed up but we weren't punished.

    When I was dabbling with chemistry way back in the ‘70s, it was easy to get red phosphorus, I converted it to white phosphorus by distilling it in an atmosphere of carbon dioxide.
    I eventually got a pound of white phosphorus from Selby because I produced a letter from the Health Department which said I can purchase white phosphorus from a retail source. Basically Selby’s was being stricter than the Health Department. In those days you could purchase conc sulphuric or nitric acid over the counter. And also various alkali metals and alkaline earths. Biggest obstacle was they were expensive. The phosphorus and sodium wasn’t expensive.

      If i'm gonna be honest, the twist feels like it's telling you to pick up the cup, and then scolding you for picking up the cup.
      It is undoubtedly a powerful scene, but thinking about it from what the game's message is (war bad, games based on horrific events weird motivator, that sort of thing), having no other option at that moment in time with the game hurrying you to use the mortar and then slapping you in the face for following its orders? Makes me think of an NPC telling you to get a spoon and then calling the guards because you took a spoon.

      @retsaM innavoiG I did the research. Unless by research you mean reading or watching western media full of propaganda for uneducated masses. Think for a moment about what you said. "Country A already has a lot of valuable resource (easily sold for the money). So, obviously, it doesn't need more of it (money)". It may sound logical only to braindead victims of public education...
      Second fundamental mistake in your thought process is that 'country' decides to start the new war and get the oil. Country is an abstraction. It doesn't decides. People do.
      Oligarchy/corporations lobby another war, and taxpayers pay for them, while those oligarchy/corporations sell goods for the billions of dollars to the military and gain free oil.

    • @ImperativeGames

      ​@retsaM innavoiG Ok, I'll try one last time. This conspiracy that "American (war) machine needs oi", which is easy to debunk, was created and presented to you by manipulators. They created invalid explanation and filled information space and, consequently, all the room in your brain.
      The other explanations never got to you. In reality, oil, for example, from the Syrian Republic is sold to Turkey, Pakistan, India, etc.
      About oil sold by some US companies - yes, it would cost more. But why it should bother *other* companies, which profit from selling goods, for example, to continue war in Afghanistan, for 67 billions every year? All the military contractors are getting a lot of money. All the "rebuilding" of destroyed countries costs billions every year.
      Or *other* companies which got control over oil and natural gas in invaded countries?

      White phosphorus is used in illumination rounds for mortars and artillery, as well as for marking targets with smoke.
      The kind of people who think that it's used in "war crimes" are idiots who have never been anywhere near the military.

Of course, turning on the news once in a while would reveal that white phosphorus is frequently used in war crimes by, amongst others, both sides of the Syrian Civil War. But no, I'm sure you're right, this highly dangerous chemical weapon is only ever used in illumination rounds...

      One soldier said that he witnessed an officer putting one of the soldiers out of his misery as it seemed he was burning alive from the inside out after seemingly inhaling a spray of the liquid.
      Whole bunkers of men being consumed by the pale flames, screaming for help - for their mothers. :(
