Lithium water explosion - Part 3

This is part 3 of 3. To find out how to get lithium, watch part 1 which is titled How to get Lithium easily. Part 2 was the first but somewhat failed attempt at an explosion. Don't try this at home unless you are an experianced chemist or an idiot. Like me!-)

The lithium reacts with water so if you sweat that could be bad so you should wear gloves. Also the alkaline solution is something you really dont want to come into contact with especially if you do this alot.

If you didn't wear gloves, did it hurt to touch the lithium?
