This is a true story of what happened to my friend Ziggy yesterday:

My mate Ziggy's dad is a scence teacher and after school, Ziggy goes to his dad's classroom to meet him before they both go home.

Now, you've all seen the experiment in school in your science lessons where the teacher has dropped a piece of sodium or pottasium in a bowl of water and it fizzes and explodes.

Well Ziggy went in the room only to find some on his dad's desk. He picked it up, getting his hands covered in it. Ziggy then went to wash his hands (yes in the water!) when his dad suddenly shouted out "Nooooooo!" and stopped him from washing them*.

If he had washed his hands, however, the potassium on his hand would have reacted with the water and blown up! Phew!




* I don't know how he finally got it off...

I always wondered what happened to Ziggy after Quantum Leap ended. Its good to know that he is continuing his adventures even though Sam never made it home. Thanks for the update!

Blwoing up is hardly what would have happened. There would only have been trace amounts, and even if a little lump had been there it would only have burned up, not exploded. He'd be more likely to get his slightly burned. Still serious, hospital job, but he'd still be able to open tomato ketchup bottles!

Sorry, grammatical error! Not "would of hurt" but "would HAVE hurt"! I meant to say:

Well it still would have hurt!!!

what you should be talking about is how stupid do you have to be to do something like that?

If he wants to blow himself up properly, get him to contact the US military.

Heh, we did that in school today. The most exciting thing we've ever done in science.

And that is really quite sad, considering it was pretty dull anyway.
