I'm imagining that his first step or two might be in an inch or so of water, so probably a lot cooler then the center. Though I'm not a hotspringologist so who knows.

Hope his epitaph includes "The hell I wont!" it's a lot more inspirational than "how bad am I? That was real dumb"

I saw another version of the story where it said his eyes were all white. I guess the lenses rapidly turned opaque from the heat, like getting cataracts but much more rapid? edit:  lol

DONT CARE BUTTON posted:This reminds me of the old anarchist cookbook in the pre-internet days. One of the projects involved rigging a phone to plug into a wall socket to fry someones BBS hardware. Even in my youth I knew that was really a stupid thing that could probably never work. Persistent rumour in those days was that the explosives recipes in that book had been deliberately edited (by THEM, presumably) so they would be dangerously unstable and explode as you tried to make them. I wonder if any competent chemist or other expert has gone through the book to see if that was actually true.

The original was a bunch of unedited and untested bullshit compiled by some kid out of stuff he dug up in a public library in the late 60s. Hanlon's Razor is in full effect here. A few years ago the FBI released their files on the subject, which you can download in pdf form here. It's mostly responses to concerned letters they received shortly after publication and some memos about whether there was anything illegal about printing it. There's also some discussion about the many copycats online. The FBI's initial analysis was that "From a technical standpoint, it is for the most part accurate but tends to over-simplify in many instances." The drug chapter is half fantasy and half stuff out of patent applications and chemical journals. The combat chapter is barely enough to springboard your own research. The bomb recipes, while generally correct, are not always complete and thus pose more of a hazard to the attacker than attackee. dis astranagant fucked around with this message at 06:46 on Jun 10, 2016 |

It had a recipe for "napalm" which, contrary to what Fight Club would have you believe, is NOT frozen OJ and gasoline...it's styrofoam and gasoline. It worked...to an extent. It takes a LOT more styrofoam than you think to finally get a gel-like consistency, but it was sort of napalm-like. It was sticky and it burned, though nowhere near as hot as real napalm, I'm sure.

DrBouvenstein posted:I remember trying a couple of the things in it after I found it online somewhere in high school (late 90's.) I think from a BBS copycat text file rumor I learned some ninja magic to kill anyone. All you need is some of their blood and you mix it with horse poo poo, let that sit for 3 days, then dip your blowdarts in it. You now have a custom made poison to kill anyone. As a dumb kid I thought how the gently caress do you get someone's blood without them knowing it where you couldn't just take all their blood and be done with it? As an adult I'm pretty sure human poo poo would be worse but exact blood typing can't possibly be the worst part of making GBS threads up darts you stick people with.

It completely works as napalm, it sticks to anything and burns. But lacks the self igniting properties that military napalm has. And you're dripping blobs of it around, instead of spraying it around at a few hundred mph via air drops and explosives.
