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

It didn't age well because styropyro is having liver issues, and the artificial fog experiment plus the cold fire experiment from part 3 featured carbon Tetrachloride, something extremely toxic to the liver put into experiments that were lit on fire. So perhaps Styropyro's fume hood wasn't fully able to work. Carbon Tetrachloride is also toxic in other ways besides liver damage.

About that mercuric nitrate ointment, I know what it was used for. My dad used to talk about an old country doctor in eastern Douglas County, MO, (probably back in the 1930s or earlier) who would make an ointment out of what he called “aqua fortis and quicksilver.” If I remember correctly, he used it as a treatment for what was commonly called “the itch” (scabies).

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.

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.
