Sodium Explosion Video- This video was shot at a Superfund site in Virginia.  I was the senior scientist on site, and we used on-site treatment for about 1,000 pounds of sodium metal.  This 3 minute clip highlights some of the thousands of sodium explosions from that event.  Note the error in the second part of the clip - we called it the sodium cannon.  Stay with the whole 3 minutes, and imagine doing that for two days while wearing a chemical suit and an air tank (SCBA).
