  • @cjmillsnun Amosite and Crocidolite, infact all 5 types of asbestos in the amphibole group are indeed hydrophobic, Chrysotile which is in the Serpentine group is hydrophillic and actually, to a certain extent absorbs water. These people here are STUPID why would you want to go past a sign that states danger asbestos lol.

  • Asbestos doesn't smell and it doesn't kill plants. It is a naturally occuring mineral. It is just that it gets stuck in your lungs and causes cancer.

  • don't disturb that shit, let it sleep

  • Yeah but come on...it's Wikipedia. Anyone can leave input there....kind of like youtube :)

  • We have asbestos in our local highschool here in oregon. even a curtain in our theatre department is filled with asbestos. and the tiles on the floor also tested dust positive

  • Thanks for some pointers. I'm about to take a handlers class in a few days

  • LOL

  • were those buildings the asbestos plant? pretty crazy anyways, i guess that giant ass fence is their for a reason

  • Reminds me of the Blair Witch Movie.

  • According to Wikipedia:

    Asbestos exposure becomes a health concern when high concentrations of asbestos fibers are inhaled over a long time period. People who become ill are almost always those who are exposed on a day-to-day basis in a job where they work directly with the material.

    Disease is very unlikely to result from a single, high-level exposure, or from a short period of exposure to lower levels.
