My dad brought home a flask of liquid nitrogen for me today because he thought it might interest me. I have no idea what stupid/irresponsible/funny things to do with it, so I turn to the people of OcUK for suggestions of how to endanger myself and others for entertainment.

Go!

The classic freezing of a Banana and hammering a nail

So far this is my best option, although I would adapt it by shooting said banana with a mates air rifle.

Penis freezing is a no-go. Im not that drunk.

I had thought about drinking it, freezing myself and then getting defrosted hundreds of years in the future. Not sure if it will work though.

If you thermos is airtight, prepare for a rather large bang... as the pressure in it builds....

if it isnt airtight, then check to see how much you have left....

Great, now I wont sleep. Its quite a hefty flask, hopefully it will last the night....


...or am I gonna wake up tomorrow and find everything within 10 feet of the flask frozen?
 
Only problem being, I need a better container if Im gonna immerse stuff in it. Thermos flasks only have a small neck. Dad said he once tried to move some of the stuff by pouring it into a plastic tub, which promptly shattered :/
 
Indeed, good suggestion.

I posted this thread at the wrong time really. Just home form the pub and all I want to do is sleep, but instead I asked for suggestions on activities to do involving liquid nitrogen :/

He's a precision engineer. He uses it on the metals he works with to make them shrink by a couple of thousandths of a millimetre so ensure a tight fit between different sections of metal (or something), so he has to use it quite often.
 
What are the chances of using liquid nitrogen to get me a girlfriend?

"Why hello thar.....wanna see what I can do with a banana and some liquid nitrogen?"
 
Apparently, you can pour it onto your hand with few ill effects....it's just bloody cold.

However, immersing your hand for too long will cause serious harm.

Im off to bed now...if the container hasn't exploded by morning, I might try some japes with it.
 
Im still alive. Thermos is in one piece. I just unscrewed the lid and there as hardly any pressure release, and the level of nitrogen hasn't gone down much.
