How to dump 20,000lbs of sodium

What do you do with several tonnes of a chemical so reactive no-one will agree to transport it? No, “hire the A-team” is not the correct answer. The correct answer is “throw it in a lake and enjoy the fireworks”.

That was so good I had to watch it twice. I loved the soundtrack to it. In fact, the only thing that could have improved this video would have been to include the A-Team.

Thats most excellent, and sure as hell beats the old open university chemistry vids we had to watch for O levels
I’d have loved to see that one going down!
