Might be good enough if they were chained in series.
And I've a distinct feeling I know just what you mean about not fit to broadcast. I've had a few moments like that myself. The sort of thing any youtube video would definitely have cut. A broken flask once, hairline crack suddenly formed and tore round the bottom half of the RBF, jumped out of the way just in time to dodge about a liter of chromyl chloride and 98% H2SO4 at about 125 'C, basically boiling hot chromic acid bath with a load of NaCl in it (forms chromyl chloride, CrO2Cl2, useful for some surprisingly delicate transformations of carbonyl compounds, the Etard reaction, for example, despite its being such a vicious little bastard of a customer that it has a nasty habit of making solvents burst into flame if someone picks rhe wrong one, which is most of them
That definitely wouldn't have made the cut, shit, it was probably a good thing it was indoors, so the neghbors didn't hear anything after nearly being melted to the bone from the waist down. I kinda have an attachment to certain parts of me that probably brings out the worst in most males faced with the imminent potential to have said parts roasted off...
I can just picture,,,someone putting their how-to video together and going over it after to remove all the bits where it didn't go to plan and they got a face full of rancid stinking grease
I know 'those moments' all too well. The times when it SHOULD have worked, according to the theory, but something threw a spanner in the works, so to speak?
My back lawn is covered in the scars from them often as not. Or occasionally growing in ways plants shouldn't, unnaturally fast and well-built in places, in others nothing will grow (I've found white phosphorus flames do REALLY funky stuff to a garden lawn. First it gets the obvious roasting, anything there killed off, but then, nothing grows at first, due to the phosphoric acid left behind by hydration of the phosphorus pentoxide acid smog cloud, the land gets made too acidic for anything to grow, then as its diluted, the paths that the willy pete takes when it goes up in flames and sends glowing incendiary streamers flying down the garden when 'one of those days' happens, it acts as fertilizer, the phosphate enrichment, and you can actually see exactly where the firestorm went
Again, I think the neighbors would have disapproved if they'd have heard the cursing after that incident. I know exactly what you mean there julie.
Edit-and sticking one's sausage in a vac line? that wouldn't end well. Hilarious, but only if its somebody else being turned inside out
