These two videos we made to feature some of the demonstrations that can be done with Sulfur Hexafluoride.

The first was made by James Lincoln as part of a video contest and the second was made by James Lincoln and Anna Spitz as part of a video demonstration series.

Sulfur Hexafluoride is available from Flinn Scientific, and should only be inhaled from a balloon, as should helium, and never from the bottle directly.
