Our chemistry teacher at schoolwent to hospital five times last year after lab experiments. With one, he opened conc HCl and ended up breathing in hydrogen chloride gas (which, for those who don't know, mixes with the water on the surface of your lungs making acid.) Another time, someone had done something wrong in a reaction, getting a completely different (unknown) product. His response? "Let's mix that with this and see what happens." Cue the room filling with clouds of smoke, half the science labs closed for the rest of the day, and another trip to hospital.
