Wait really?

Probably!! She put pool shock into a bottle resting on gravel. Regular bleach is wayyy less strong than pool shock. Imagine all that chlorine-coated gravel flying at your face - yikes

Yeah someone posted a link to the exact pool cleaner that was in her hand, insanely strong stuff. I’m no expert in mixing chemicals inside a 2L bottle, but from my chemical engineering days I can confidently say that stuff will fuck you up. Especially because it looks like it didn’t fully dissolve, so there’s a ton of chemical just waiting to react with her eyeballs/skin/etc. Playing around with mentos and coke is one thing, but if the packaging is covered in WHMIS symbols you should probably exert some caution

Worked at a pool store in highschool, we had up to 100lb buckets of shock, as well as the little paper sacks like she has.

Even just opening one of the buckets gets your eyes watering and nose irritated.

That’s terrifying. As soon as I saw her shake it, I was yelling at my phone “RUN, LADYYYY!” It’s like she was waiting for it to blow up in her face.

I hope so too. She might be stupid but I hope she’s ok.
