The Chemistry Understanders have made a chart!
You know what is certainly pretty dangerous and comes with health risks? Fucking mining! So even if these crunchy fascists were right about the chemistry part, it shows they’re totally fine if someone else suffers long term health reprocussions
Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colorless and odorless chemical compound, also referred to by some as Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide, or simply Hydric acid. Its basis is the highly reactive hydroxyl radical, a species shown to mutate DNA, denature proteins, disrupt cell membranes, and chemically alter critical neurotransmitters. The atomic components of DHMO are found in a number of caustic, explosive and poisonous compounds such as Sulfuric Acid, Nitroglycerine and Ethyl Alcohol.
I know it’s just a meme, but every time I see DHMO I think of heavy water.
DHMO can cause asphyxiation if inhaled, and in its crystalline form, can cause your car’s tires to lose traction. It should be banned!
DHMO asphyxiation is the leading cause of death amongst sailors in the US Navy. Support our troops and write to your senators to ban DHMO today!
I’m guessing alcohol related illnesses are way higher than drowning for navy guys.
I looked it up before making the comment and the first result said it was drowning while on duty and car wrecks off duty
Damn really? Just stay on the boat. Aldo are these results bases on the full history of the navy? Cause ww2 might skew those stats. The navy hasn’t really many boats attacked afterwards. And they’re big boats. Should be easy to remain on em. Considering car wrecks are the main off duty I’d have to say alcohol is still the overall culprit here.
