damn I must have sensitive baby hands or you saying because it was metal to cold not skin to cold.

that cold it really wouldn't matter if it came in gradually enough. The metal would get cold fast enough to really do some damage before your skin would feel something's up.

Being to close to the ln2/dice for extended preiods of time can really dry out your skin too. FYI. Good thing I use a lot of lotion... :leghump: :rofl

that's the deal FACE. If you can feel it, the damage is done.

gotcha, will wear pants next time I ln2 for sure

lol, wouldn't want a Dumb and Dumber ski lift scenario to go down on the ol one eye'd trouser snake.

"Oh look, frost!"

You mean the frost is bad for it? :blink:

maybe not the frost but the removal from frosty metal, absolutely.:ohcrap:

Well, there goes my weekend plans..... :laughing:

Once I get the timing right for some ln2 fun, I'm going gloves and all... My hands are important for work and shower time, so damaging them is not a good idea.

LN2 does not oxidize.

LN2 becomes N2, this adds to the amount of N2 in the room and displaces the other gasses. It forces out some N2, some O2, some co2, and some of every other gas.
The percentage of the room air that is N2 goes up, and the others go down.
Hence, if you don't get more oxygen into the room you will eventually have a room with 99.9% ln2 and .1 or less% oxygen, and rather dead inhabitants.

Oxidizing means combining with oxygen, which N2 does not do at normal pressures and temps.

my fault..it "vaporizes"


welders use lotion to protect their skin ... thanks for the info
