And here's what can go wrong:

.

I guess no one told the budding scientists that it isn't the number of times you throw it but the the pressure built up inside.

LOL.....yeah it can take up to 7 minutes before the thing blows.
Kicking it does absolutely nothing.

If you want a dozen to go off at once you need to measure the ice and water precisely.

It sounds like a good experiment after a few drinks on New Years. Good luck.

Seriously. gloves, eye protection.

I guess when we see Esco post on Jan 1 it will be like this:

h y Guys I ju t aw a gr at p an he how d m a gr at tim . lol

(be kind of hard to type when yer missing your e and s fingers lol)

I wonder what would happen if you added a corndog to the bomb

 

[danmand]

The guy in the video is handling dry ice with his bare hands. Very smart.

That is not as crazy as it looks. Quite normal, actually.

 

[Esco!]

I'm gonna be like McBain from the Simpsons.


"AAAaaahhhhhh..........the goggles do nothing"

Corndog shrapnel.

If you say so. I always thought you need gloves to avoid damage to your hands. I would touch anything that cold with my bare hands.

Each to his/her I guess.

Yeah, tell people they need to use gloves, but you can actually carry a small block of it in your bare hands, as long as you keep it moving, sort of like a hot potato. The sublimation of the dry ice makes it possible.

Don't try this at home. Actually, dion't have dry ice at home.

Warning: Dry ice is Carbon Dioxide in solid form. When used it changes (sublimates) into vapour form, and is quite dangerous.

 

[hunter001]

I will stick to the gloves. If these guys are smart enough to wait for the bottle to explde... I am not sure they would get the concept of keeping the dry ice moving (The guys in the video not Esco and his buddies on New Years Eve.)

I used to order Fetal Bovine Serum from Sigma-Aldrich all the time, it always came in dry ice, I've breathed in the vapours (in small amounts) without any problems.

Well, I don't know about "quite" dangerous. Carbon Dioxide is what we exhale when we breath. I guess if you filled a bag w/dry ice and stuck your head in it would kill you, but so would just putting the bag over your head.

Just my 2 cents worth.

Here is a quarter's worth:

The atmosphere contains about 0.03%.Carbon dioxide is toxic in larger concentrations, of 5% or more. Most people are not aware of that, which is the reason I mentioned it. Dry ice should not be handled in (small) closed rooms.

 

[hunter001]

So you do it or black out first?

 

[Papi Chulo]

How about some liquid nitrogen & a can of shaving cream?... maybe a can of whip cream would be more fun

Please do not confuse Carbon MONOXIDE which is deadly, with CO2. Carbon Dioxide will kill you if the concentration gets too high, but only because you are not getting enough O2.

As for handling it with your bare hands, you should know that dry ice is/was used in medicine to burn off warts. (now they tend to use liquid N2) Dry ice can give you a very bad "burn".
