Baron von Eevl posted:Mercury's freezing point is also about -38(either C or F, it's cold enough that it doesn't really matter), so the shot where the solid chunks of metal are melting into liquid would have been tough with mercury. Gallium melts at something like 86F. No, it's -40 where it gets cold enough to not matter if it's C or F. You're thinking of the melting point of mercury, which is -37.9F/--38.9C at standard pressure - looks like to get mercury to be solid at room temperature you'd have to increase pressure to 10kbar, which offers some diifficulty in filming (Source: The Phase Diagrams of the Elements. https://www.osti.gov/servlets/purl/4010212/). If you want to see some solid mercury there's an embedded video in this: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/90415/watch-liquid-mercury-freeze-solid-and-hammer-rubber-nails
