    So many stupid warnings these days we tend not to read or understand the important ones

    Got to be honest, skim read at best any warning labels. Thanks for the heads up.

    Here's a good one. Mix brake fluid and chlorine in powder form (as you would in a swimming pool). Wait around 30s. And then observe the explosion.

    Only do about 30ml of each to begin with until you've blown a few things up, or watched the resulting fireball.

    Wow! That's very handy to know, you'd think they'd make the warning label a tad bolder, makes cigarettes look a bit tame....

    Before you judge a man, walk a mile in his shoes. After that, who cares? ...He's a mile away and you've got his shoes

    Yes they are there for a reason but how offten are they over looked, and offten the chemical compistions for some products you need to have a dotorate of chemistery to understand, as Argon is the comon inert gas or part make up of gasses used, when TIG or MIG welding, knowing that adding heat and Argon to common break cleaner, would make a leathal cocktail of gasses, is not some thing the average person would know.
