That’s great because this is supposed to be educational and a surprising amount of research was done (way more than anticipated). All elements are solid at STP so for the gasses that’s in the range of -200 C. Someone suggested doing a version with liquid and gas enemas but you know? I’m just not that dedicated (yet)

My first thought was “why is nitrogen dangerous?” but I was thinking about it at room temperature or around 20C.

I know about decompression sickness (the bends) but I wouldn’t expect that to be a problem at 1 atmosphere. Then I stumbled upon isobaric counterdiffusion and I wondered if that could happen from pumping any pure gas into the rectum at atmospheric pressure, since it’d be at a higher partial pressure than any gas in the tissue.

How, uh dedicated are you?

It’s for science, so someone has to do it,

Why not iodine?

  I was informed by someone that elemental iodine is actually toxic when not in salt form. Could be true/false?
