Metallic murcury can’t actually be absorbed through the skin, and it can theoretically be handled without protective equipment if you know what you’re doing. Not that I would recommend it.
See the crazy stuff that Cody’s Lab does on YouTube, and he hasn’t gotten poisoned yet:
Rip to that guy

Mercury poisoning isn’t all or nothing. I love love love Cody but also that boy probably has a little mercury poisoning at this point ngl.
No he’s been tested and the test came back normal

Holy shit. I’m as surprised as I am happy! Thanks for letting me know.
Ooo I forgot about Cody. Gotta see if he is back to posting videos
He’s back and posting fairly regularly again, and better news is that he finally got paid by Google!
He just published a few videos, with more about the Chicken Hole Base
Mercury can absorb through the skin, but it takes a very long time. (Generally safe to touch it, but still wouldn’t recommend it)
If you have the stuff in your bare hands you also inhale the stuff…
You could just… not inhale liquids you’re holding in your hands. Probably a good idea even when it’s not mercury
/s
Try telling that to a 🐠
No hands, no problem.
Nah, it’s the vapor that’s dangerous with elemental mercury. Touching it is basically fine. Just no open wounds and be in a well ventilated area
There are far more toxic forms of mercury you shouldn’t mess with though
Is it more the inhalation than the skin absorption that would be toxic? Not too familar with mercury poisoning.
You’re correct
