    I have to say, those seem like they would be pretty fun to mess around with. I would love to take that aerogel and chuck it at someone. They wouldn't feel a thing! Another thing I would love to try are the miracle berries. Eat one and then bet your friends that you can't drink a bottle of tobasco sauce.

    Are miracle berries real? Thought they were a joke or something.

    Those do all look like fun. The plushies are kinda lame, tho -- and I saw those in a store near me a while back.

    My friend tried the miracle berries back when he was in Taiwan, and he said a Coke tasted really salty...bizarre. I'm really tempted to get the gallium, there's some on sale for amazon

    Lol I knew about all of them... My friend grows miracle berries in his backyard, no trouble getting that. My science teacher let's me take stuff: she has gallium. But aerogel... I want that... Someone willing to buy for me?
