Pouring mercury into liquid nitrogen

Mercury is the only metal that's a liquid at room temperature, so I wanted to see what would happen if I poured it into liquid nitrogen. This is my first KZbin shorts video and I will be posting more here. I will be using this channel to combine all of the shorter videos that I've made on other platforms (Instagram, Tiktok, Twitter, etc). I will also make new ones exclusively for this channel!
WARNING: Do not attempt anything in this video. Mercury is toxic, an environmental hazard, and must be handled appropriately.

[@informationiswealth3974]

To melt it again what did you used

[@Merennulli]

It's not so much that they thought mercury would make you immortal as it was that they used mercury a lot. The "immortality potions" contained mercury, but they also contained other things. Infamously, the Jiajing Emperor was served an "immortality potion" that contained powdered jade and mercury. The reason they used mercury so much was that it is an amazing solvent. Sort of like how chemists use things like dimethyl ether as solvents when water won't work. Toxic, but necessary. As for why people (notably several Chinese emperors) drank known poisons to try to achieve immortality isn't really known. Arguments have been made the conclusion "this will make you immortal" came from either an initial feeling of improved health before the toxic effects were noticed, or that the substances halted decomposition of corpses (decay bacteria don't live long drinking mercury either).

The mercury leaking from the sheath of ice caused by the contact of moisturized air with a super cold surface was much cooler than I could have guessed.
