Lenny the Clam, I live in an area in San Jose, CA surrounded by old quicksilver mines. We used to take the kids up on hikes to see the old mining camps and sealed off entrances to the mines

Mercury used to be used in fillings. I still have several that I got as a kid, over 30 years ago. I'm still here...

It's worth looking for videos of the reaction between mercury and aluminium. They're usually sped up.
