The next time you find yourself being chased by bill collectors , all you need is abeaker full of gallium to turn the aluminum baseball batsthey’re handle into what await like a kid - safe toy made from spongelike Nerf foam .
Gallium is one of those rare metals that unfreeze somewhere just above way temperature . When exposed to the aluminum , the tough metal will actually ingest into the softer gallium like a sponge soaking up a spill . As if that ’s not freaky enough , once it ’s been absorbed , the atomic number 31 will actually make the aluminum unbelievably voiced and brittle , to the point where you’re able to pull aside an atomic number 13 baseball game squash racket using your unornamented hand .
