๐Ÿ’ป Thanks to Opera for sponsoring this video! Get a browser thatโ€™s literally better at everything, download Opera today: https://opr.as/08-Opera-browser-nilered Almost 2 years ago, I saw a video that Steve Mould made about something called an atomic trampoline and the moment that I saw it, I really wanted to one. The only sad part is that it is now impossible to buy one, so instead, I decided to just make one myself.

I work with beryllium, lead, tritium, and uranium contaminated materials, with ultrahigh power invisible ultraviolet lasers (terawatts), and with highly radioactive neutron-activated structural materials. The beryllium scares me the most, and nothing else is even close. This video is terrifying. I know you were *trying* to be safe, and there are some good prudent precautions here, but we are talking about a metal that is toxic at NANOGRAM quantities per cubic meter here. This is the mass of a single grain of pollen in a volume of air the size of a washing machine. It is FANTASTICALLY toxic material approaching plutonium levels of toxicity. You need to obtain some swipe sampler papers and contact a testing company to send random surface swipes to from around your lab. There are some berylliosis induced lung cancer cases where the exposure levels were so low they couldn't even be measured with certainty. It is not worth taking the slightest chance with your health when dealing with this substance. It is absolutely no joke.

The way he talks I feel like every next sentence is going to end with โ€œand it went horribly wrongโ€

I love how Nile is slowly building up a plethora of extremely niche chemistry equipment so eventually he never has to buy anything again

Took me a hot second to figure out that "atomic trampoline" did not, in fact, mean a trampoline that launches things into the air using the power of a nuclear weapon...

โ€œSo Nile, why did you decide to try 30% extra metal?โ€ โ€œIt came to me in a dreamโ€

Reassured by someone in Alibaba said โ€œitโ€™s okโ€ is just another level of trust.
