It's mind blowing how much influence a small video can have on someone's future. In my case, Channels like Nigel's are the reason I kept being interested in science and more importantly biochemistry. I never thought I had it in me but fast forward 4 years, I'm now one of the top students in my classes and even got offered some paid internships at my local research labs. Again I never even thought I'd understand anything but his videos (especially the one where he explained crystallisation) kept my curiosity going. Here I am, on my way to *hopefully* open my own lab.

Actually that’s precisely why I went into chemistry instead of biology! My HS chemistry prof was fantastic and actually let us play. Guided us in not completely destroying his classroom/labs but we still burned and melted a fuckton of stuff. He was tough, critical but knew how to push and challenge us. I know I’ll sound bitter a bit but sadly this sort of literal experimentation just isn’t allowed (liability mostly) any more and it’s made chemistry [wet at least] a lot less interesting. It’s like dissection in biology. I was dissecting fetal pigs and cats, pithing frogs and watching their hearts beat, hooking up gastrocnemius muscles to drum oscillographs and shocking them with different voltages to determine the most efficient and so much more in my 7th (yes SEVENTH) grade biology science lab (it was HS Advanced Placement level). This just doesn’t happen in scene classes today. I absolutely know and so appreciate the invaluable level of education I received. If only that was still happening…

From a medical standpoint Bismuth is also sometimes used as a hemostatic agent. It helps stop bleeding. Which is why it used to be so effective in Pepto, a lot of people would drink it for peptic ulcers and maybe even early stages of small bowel Crohns or Ulcerative Colitis relief. We of course have much better and widely standardized methods of treatments and better hemostat agents as well but a very interesting element nonetheless

I love this video for 2 reasons: 1. bismuth is my favorite metal and it's beautifully mesmerizing when crystalized, and 2. I love how Nile explains everything in an interesting and fun way.

You can buy a pound of pure bismuth for like twenty bucks on Amazon I think. I was interested in bismuth like a year ago but never got any, I saw some people just heat it in a pot and break it apart

I'd like to add another thing to 1:47 where Bismuth is used commercially; Due to its low melting point, it is/was also used as a fuse, to keep households from catching fire when high amperages flow. Although simple and relatively cheap, the downside of it is that the fuse cannot be repaired and you have to resort to buying new ones when one or many are affected. To add insult to injury, many old households including the one I live in still maintain such archaic methods while new or renovated households use switch circuit breakers.

You don't even look old enough to have had time to learn all this stuff. Hats off to you bro. Love your shows.

Fun fact: Bismuth is radioactive, however, it is generally not shown on periodic tables as such because it's half life is twenty quintillion one hundred quadrillion years, or 2.01x10¹⁹, or over a billion times the age of the universe.

Bismuth is my favourite metal 1. It is hevy, wich feels really cool when holding 2. It melts at a low temperature 3. It is also slightly radioactive 4. When melted, it has cool colors and the scraping off thing is extremely satisfying 5. You can make cool looking crystals with not much effort. 10/10 would recommend

Those unique square crystals are known as hopper crystals because they look like grain hoppers. I looked up instructions for growing the crystals after falling in love with them at a jewelry conference...the easiest way is to melt a large cup full of bismuth metal and then pour out the excess once the crystals have formed to your liking. Steel measuring cups were recommended as seeding vessels. Without proper temperature control it's as much art as science.

I think the most amazing scientific example is right there: 23 minutes of a video which are small cuts of hours of work, showing step by step of what not to do because of these reasons. Even negative findings are useful. Still, it looks pretty damn advanced, but that's the purest form of chemistry. Imo tho. Every science can be difficult, but difficult is only a way of thinking more. Its trial and error - getting data and converting it into context. Maybe, one person will see this and say: I'll try this tomorrow - maybe I can find a way. As much more numbers we get, more chances of this video having a solution.

I just realized why I like his videos so much, after like half a dozen of them in a row: it's the way he always sounds like he's leading to something, even when he isn't. Sometimes he's just clearly detailing what he's doing, but with forward motion and anticipation. My Adhd stays hooked on so I can watch entire videos without getting distracted.
