@@jupiter_ios Why imagine a liquid as a solid if it's not a solid? Is that really the best way for us to understand things -- by pretending those things are not what they really are -- instead of just training our brains to be better at understanding the things in the world around us as they _actually_ are?
@@davecarsley8773 in the sun from some angles it just looks like water and you can imagine that thing is heavy but not unliftable like a massive steel block that size.
It's not really the density that causes it. Mercury is extremely cohesive and less adhesive than water, that's why it can clump together to create those big droplets and generally doesn't stick to surfaces. Water "sticks" more easily to another material and makes less big droplets which will end up in the porous structure of a paper towel. On top of that water also sticks to paper towels because of the cellulose fibers, which it will cling to even more.

I like how all the safety police are fixated on the mercury and only like one guy seems concerned about the much more urgent hazard of falling on his face.
Nah it was more of a joke. However you can search on Wikipedia for gas toxicity of metal mercury (when oxydized it releases few amounts of mercury that goes in air and when you breath it, it goes to lungs, becomes another chemical form of mercury which is neurotoxic), and about the ridiculously low amount of mercury required to get intoxicated. He's totally responsive of his own life but I would certainly stay very far away from this mercury bath :p
Actually it evaporates at room temperature. If he does what he did in this video twice in a lifetime, I believe it's quite OK, especially being outside (well ventilated area, I guess :p)
I would really like to see if you could walk across a kitty pool or something of that nature. The question I have with this is "how can one redistribute their mass so that they don't fall over" and other questions of that nature. I'm sure its very possible to walk across quicksilver, but weight, gravity, and density seem like they're all combining factors to this.
You could skim on the surface. Man, that would be WEIRD. There should totally be a carnival event where you put on hazmat suits and play in a mercury pool.

Should have attached a couple vertical pieces (2x4s will do) to the tank, so you would have an easy way to stabilize yourself.
Or maybe something like a clothesline. Or maybe hold a balance stick like people walking across a high wire.

Man your videos are awesome what I would do just to hang out with you for a day I would learn so much thank you for sharing keep up the good work I will be looking forward to your next video God bless
I imagine if you had shoes with a higher surface area, balancing and walking would be a whole lot easier.
Do you know what Michael Jackson’s favourite gas?
Helium( HeHe)
I’m gonna die alone
Drunken Hobo unless there was two separate balloons filled, then it'd be HeHe
See.. this is why every loves you!
Nobody else gives us content like this!! 👍
Cody is the REAL pickup master
This was really cool, you make science fun!
Youll float too!!
Mercurywise
Cyber SharK Mercury-dimewise
Unless you're denser than the average human.
i see what you did there haha
Could you imagine a planet with an ocean of mercury?
In one of the infinite realities there is
a planet made from 100% liquid mercury and the radius of earth would have a surface gravity of 2.463g
No because that is stupid and your mother doesn't love you.
and the mercury will make a mercury rain and will absorb into your body and damage your blood and brain quickly.
woah that would be cool as frick
So many ways to top this in the future. I hear tap dancing with plutonium to plutonium contact is supposed to make a really pretty light show.
Such a crazy material.
Now you know what it feels like to be Jesus
He kinda looks like him.
Middle-eastern?
Universal balance is nesesary
the gamer plot twist: he's jesus
Fake ass not real jesus. The guy that never existed. Cody is way better than jesus because he is trying to educate people on real stuff. He isn't a fake dude making fake claims through a shitty false book :)
"I shouldn't put my bare foot in there"
Touches barefoot in
"It does not want my foot in there"
Shoves foot in
I'm getting a lot of Steve Irwin vibes from this 🤔
He says he would put his bare foot in there, but he has an open wound on his left foot.
i shouldn't be surprised by this resat they did use to float the light house lamps on mercury to make them easier to spin
This is pretty cool but i do wonder if this would be as effective without the boots. Still better safe than sorry with an open wound in the mix! Cool video!
"i wonder if there will be a new cody's lab video soon"

Dangerous Act -- demonetized ! Yellow icon ... Lol....
Warped Perception Be careful, they just might do it
Liquid mercury is not as dangerous as you might think. Mercury is really dangerous in the form of a vapor.
cpovey1 Or in its organic version
Or in form of any salt, so Hg-Ions are also really toxic!
Lol you go ahead and try that bud hahahaha
and this is also why you do not sink in Lava but get BBQd right on the surface if you dont lower the temperature while impacting to such a extent that the lava solidifies around you and you partly stay submerged until your feet are ashes or the solidified lava crust floats up with you to be your companion until you are dead
Cody I have a question.
Can mercury be levitated inside of a toroidal electro-magnetic field and rotated at extremely high speed without it touching the inside walls?
is that FL E X S E A L
