@kwokshsee lmao c'mon mate, it's the internet, i'm not going to capitalize or punctuate at any neccessary time as long as i get the message accross, all is good and mee sitting beside the explosion? 1st, maybe 2nd degree burns here and there. but after that, nothing too permanent and the suicide bomber analogy, that's a bit on the extreme side, don't you think? lmfao i'd say more.. a firecracker in a train station sure it'll cause some chaos, but no extreme damage done

@butternutsquashpie "i highly doubt fish, toads, frogs, etc would swim near a sizzling white rock"

What a shameless gangster logic!!!

It'is like saying u're a suicide bomber with all explosives hanging over ur body, ppl wouldn't get near and nobody would be hurt! U are shameless, mate.

"to sodium is dialuted in teh air and water extremely limiting the destruction"

Write better English!

Again, if u think it is not destructive, I dare u to sit beside such a drop. God damn U.

@kwokshsee i see your point there,

however, it did stay above surface and i highly doubt fish, toads, frogs, etc would swim near a sizzling white rock when it's about to burst,

to sodium is dialuted in teh air and water extremely limiting the destruction

there really isn't that much sodium to damage the nearby fauna or flora even

@butternutsquashpie

Didn't ur school teach logic mate? Abundance has nth to do here. Sodium in nature is NOT in pure form, like what was used in this vid. When pure sodium reacts with H20, it reacts violently as u see above, the intense heat and shock KILL living organisms in its vicinity. The NaOH produced is highly CAUSTIC b4 it's thoroughly diluted, and again KILL creatures in its vicinity.

If u think it's harmless, I dare u to let it drop beside u while u're in the pond! Have common sense!

@kwokshsee it's sodium mate,

it's the 6th most abundant metal on earth, lmfao

@ScienceHideout Grams are not used for weight!

[kwokshsee]
