Here is a bit more on the element gallium from wikipeda:
Gallium is a chemical element with symbol Ga and atomic number 31. Elemental gallium does not occur in free form in nature, but as the gallium(III) compounds that are in trace amounts in zinc ores and in bauxite. Gallium is a soft, silvery metal, and elemental gallium is a brittle solid at low temperatures, and melts at 29.76 °C (85.57 °F) (slightly above room temperature). The melting point of gallium is used as a temperature reference point. The alloy galinstan (68.5% gallium, 21.5% indium, and 10% tin) has an even lower melting point of −19 °C (−2 °F), well below the freezing point of water. Since its discovery in 1875, gallium has been used as an agent to make alloys that melt at low temperatures. It has also been useful in semiconductors, including as a dopant.
We hope you like the video and if you have a spare iPhone, this guy might want to do an experiment with it!
It ruined an rebranded and overpriced Samsung Galaxy?
I have gallium and I see no reason to post “don’t try this at home” as of 2015 there are no reportable issues with using gallium 31.
It’s like, smoking , its like on a grill……but I’ll just go ahead and touch it with my bare hands , no harm could possibly come to me
Ga is like HG. When in contact with Al, it causes the Al to lose that Al oxide coating. The Al basically “rusts” at a very fast rate. Don’t store Ga or Hg in an Al container. The container won’t last very long.
Cool but I wouldn’t be playing with my bare hands in that stuff.
He must really have some money to be ruining a expensive
Phone
What a fucking retard! Why? Couldn’t you just demonstrate that on an aluminum can or something? It doesn’t matter whether it was an iphone or not, why waste and ruin something that worked just fine? I swear people piss me off more and more each day!
It’s a$#%&!@*anyways his crap his choice better that than an android
Really ???????? Did THIS happen??? what a fucking looser. Hope your making a lot of money on those Viagra adds you$#%&!@*
Why try this at all ?
Better wash his hands. That sizzling was the lithium battery reacting with the water
