How do you hold it? Moisture on your skin would mess you up.

Pretty sure that's illegal dumping of hazardous materials.

Sodium reacts violently when it comes in contact with water.

That entire group reacts violently to water. The higher the atomic number, the bigger the boom

Can you fish easier like this? Otherwise I'll stick to dynamite.

salt is half sodium, NaCL. the world's oceans are basically gigantic bombs. there is currently a rush to develop a chemical process to remove CL from salt and harness saltwater weaponry. scary thought if this falls into the wrong hands. - yogagirl

I learned this shite in 9th grade. Got to watch a cesium and water explosion once. Pretty incredible.
