#2The author is Chemdelic. I was expecting a video by Nile Red, but I was not disappointed. (As the video explain, don't try this at home unless you have a degree in Chemistry or something. That invisible fumes looks nasty.)

#6I decided to open the Wikipedia page for Chloroform while this video played and thought it was interesting that the idea that criminals can immediately knock someone out with a chloroform soaked rag is really a work of fiction. Not that it couldn't be done, but that it would probably take minutes and not just a few seconds.

There is a reason why anesthesiologists are paid well. Knocking someone out safely is not a joke.
(Not only in US where everything health-related involves big money, but also in the countries which underpay other healthcare professionals.)

There's a historical crime fiction series that intertwines the real history and discovery of Choloroform, gynecology etc. with crime:
