Today I learned that liquid nitrogen is not to be trifled with. In fairness, I already knew this (so many training sessions), but nothing hits it home like frantically trying to turn a stopcock whilst wearing oversized comedy yellow cryogloves, because a frothing -80 degree liquid is spilling out of your metal container and freezing the kerb wildlife, and threatening to asphyxiate you with clouds of nitrogenous smoke.

Hehe. Stopcock.

This is only funny if one assume first that you're talking about the smoke.
