This is
well-done, informative, topical, insightful....I give it a
9.9! Typically, safety videos are pretty lame.
Not this one. If they do another, I could think of about 20 or so
ideas they could include.

It's nice
to see a modern safety video that promotes safety culture. I like
it **BUT**
I can not believe that anyone still uses piranha
solution today, and this video condones its use. There are plenty
of fine alternatives, the hazard is great, and the risks are too high,
even with proper training.
Even in the best-prepared laboratory and with the best
training, it takes only one small slip-up to cause a serious accident.
I speak from personal experience. I challenge anyone
who uses the stuff to read my ancient Usenet posting on this and then
try to defend it. You can read the whole thread or just skip down
to my final entry in it: http://yarchive.ne
t/chem/piranha_solution.html
NOBODY should ever use
piranha. EVER. It's been over 20 years since I witnessed
that accident and I can still clearly visualize the puddle of blood and
injuries in my mind's eye.
