I would agree with you, wouldn’t he work so care free and without any safety standards. I worked with some of the same stuff too, like you said I had to wear a hazmat suit and he is there with a fucking tank top, he isn’t even wearing a long sleeve. I m deeply worried that someday he, someone near him or someone else taking him as a role model will harm him loser or other around him. And if he isn’t dying from it now he will someday from the consequences what’s really sad. It’s important to motivate young people but not like this. I highly doubt/can’t believe/ imagine he is a trained experienced professional with his lack of safety measures, like lab coat, fume hood, real equipment and furniture. And with his mistreating of safety rules like doesn’t tf taste the stuff you made, or release toxic smoke into the environment he is really a danger and it’s no wonder why he got a visit from the FBI, but they should’ve done something to stop this madness before something will happen

@@ATAMorpheusdespite his lack of safety protocols and slight insanity, he has a degree in chemistry and is qualified to teach it. His electronic videos on the other hand… well he at the very least has an extensive amount of experience and knowledge to make up for his lack of a degree.

@@TURK_182 Basically everything he made in the video except the table coating (I have the ingredients for that one actually so I might try it) are mildly toxic to lethal, the pyrotechnics only made sense because he's miles from other people and even then he was in full PPE Prussian blue is still used but not in anything you handle directly; it's typically sealed afterwards through a glass frame or a clear coating.

Ah yes the cure for itching: toxic liquid metal

@@Qualicabyss you have to remember this stuff in the context of the era-- sulfa drugs were the best they had and anti-parasitics were mostly based on the "it kills them before it kills you because of the dose", selectively toxic drugs that were toxic to parasites but not the host were not really a thing. As a result mercury and arsenic were common in treating various kinds of infestations-- including the scabies mite. This is the era when they figured out enough to make the toxic metal more or less bioavailable, but they hadn't discovered the modern drugs yet.

@@dangerszewski9816 If only history class was like this. lmao

Well, if you ever had that calamity upon you it would be clear why people would go down desperate ways to get rid of it before ivermectin.

Mercury salts were also applied topically to treat syphilis, though the effect was questionable since the disease wasn‘t just skin deep, and the mercury probably added to the neurotoxicity. Then again, the alternatives for treating syphillis were either injecting organic arsenic compounds, or deliberately getting infected with malaria so that the resulting high fever would combat both pathogens.
