Launching molten iron with a shovel

There's no info posted with this video...none at all.

The original was posted to reddit (in a subreddit to which I'm not going to link because of the problematic title), and there wasn't any info there, either.

I do appreciate that the two gents (I'm assuming gents, though I could be wrong) are in full PPE...

...unlike the guys in this video.

Amazing Molybdenum

I appreciate the playfulness of the Manchester chemists playing around in their videos. They show great curiosity and seem honestly fascinating by the results. The above video shows them running electricity through wires of various metals - copper, aluminum, magnesium, brass, tungsten, gold, molybdenum - in open atmosphere.

Even more impressive to me is their tenacity in trying to explain something once they get unexpected or at least curious results. In the video below, they explore the phenomenon of molybdenum wires producing what they refer to as unduloids - regularly spaced molybdenum blobs - on the surface of the heated wire.
