Science experiment gone wrong
Here’s a professor who deserves to be nominated for the Darwin Awards. Below the following pictures, you will find tips on how to actually conduct a scientific experiment, tips on safety, and what this professor should have done.

This professor shows how not to conduct a science experiment during class. On the bright side, nobody was injured.



Here’s how you ACTUALLY conduct a science experiment.
Science Experiment Preparations
With your detailed experimental procedure in hand, you are almost ready to start your science experiment. But before you begin there are still a few more things to do:
- Know what to do. Read and understand your experimental procedure. Are all of the necessary steps written down? Do you have any questions about how to do any of the steps?
- Get a laboratory notebook for taking notes and collecting data (see Data Table below).
- Be prepared. Collect and organize all materials, supplies and equipment you will need to do the experiment. Do you have all of the materials you need? Are they handy and within reach of your workspace?
- Think ahead about safety! Are there any safety precautions you should take? Will you need adult supervision? Will you need to wear gloves or protective eye gear? Do you have long hair that needs to be pulled back out of your face? Will you need to be near a fire extinguisher?

Posted 19 Jul 2007 at 9:03 pm ¶what a moron. on the other side, i wonder what that powder thats burning is?
Posted 19 Jul 2007 at 9:38 pm ¶lol
Posted 19 Jul 2007 at 11:22 pm ¶I mean to say LAFFOLs
Posted 19 Jul 2007 at 11:23 pm ¶You’re missing the big picture..
This is probebly one of the only positive experiences these kids are gonna get from science class…
If he ignited , along with the powder, a spark of curiousity in even one of them.. it’s worth it.

The instructor appears to have an experiment gone awry, but, his composure seemed to be good enough to handle, what could have turned into a mortal scenario for the whole lab.
The only morons, that I can find here, are the one with keyboards in (or at) their hands.

Posted 20 Jul 2007 at 9:41 am ¶I would guess that he is burning coffee creamer. Which is flammable when it is suspended in the air
Posted 22 Jul 2007 at 5:44 pm ¶I wish I had science teachers like that in school. hell maybe I would of went more.
