This crazy guy Theodore Grey decides he wants to try out what it is like to stick his hand into liquid nitrogen (that’s -195 C folks!) – a great idea if you ask me.
To liquid nitrogen, flesh is like a surface hundreds of degrees above its boiling point. The moment you stick your hand into the nitrogen, the hand created a protective layer of evaporated nitrogen gas, just as the skillet created a layer of steam.
That gave him just enough time to put his hand in and pull it out again. Any longer than that, and frostbite would have set in.
The smoke looks cool and all, but I still would not try this at home!
Check out the video of the experiment on here.
