Interesting is right, but you know, just because you can try something doesn't mean you need to try something.
I was waiting for the fairy to rear it's ugly head. Absolutely amazing.
I understand the science
But would never try it

And I carry a LOADED Hell CatYea, thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
I'm not trying it , no way , no how.

I agree. Sure we could do it, but why would we? Already seen the video that was good enough for me.
It works, I won't go into how I know it works, suffice to say some alcohol was involved. Much like lying on the nail bed or fire walking, it's just basic chemistry and physics applied. A quick dip won't hurt you a bit, but don't leave it there!
Saw the video.
That's good enough for me.
I consider it already been done.
No need to do it again.
Melting Stuff is FUN!Sent from my PC with a keyboard and camera on it with internet too.
Shooting stuff is even funner

"Warm but pleasant" I know I won't be trying it.

Can anyone enlighten me as to why the tinsel fairy is absent during this stunt? It would be my luck to wind up with clean fingers and a face full of lead.
I was shocked no water "exploded" out. I think because their hands were barely wet. You see them shake off excess before plunging in.
I'll just settle for nice looking cast boolits, thank you. With gloves on!
I saw this test years ago by a university professor, who used the same analogy to explain why you can stand nekid in the arctic etc...
then he went and dunked his hand, up to above the knuckles in molten lead....
I believe it, but I won't be doing it any time soon!
I am ONLY responsible for what I Say!
I am NOT responsible for what You THINK I Said!

Chinese proverb: "I do not have to put my hand in the fire to know that it is hot."
Like the Old saying ( You can't fix Stupid!)
I watched that episode. Ain't gonna try it. These are the same guys that shot a bowling ball through a neighborhood a while back. Never did find out what that cost 'em !
Grass Hopper... when you can dip your hand in molten lead it is time for you to go.
Why?
Because you're too F....n crazy for us to let you stay!
Our Bill of Rights does not say what we can do....it specifies what government cannot do.
When I was a kid (WWII) a neighbor chum showed up with his hand bandaged up. Seems that a plumber showed him the trick (dipping his hand in the lead pot, right back out, and no burn) without explaining that the sweat on his hand provided a momentary cushion - so Dick tried it, sweatless, and removed the hand danged fast, but not fast enough. I don't believe he had any lasting injury, tho...

One of the most endearing sights in the world is the vision of a naked good-looking woman leaving the bedroom to make breakfast. Bolivar Shagnasty (I believe that Lazarus Long also said it, but I can't find any record of it.)
