  • Dry humping in a pool can finally be taken literally!

  • Are you ever so slightly insane? Dry ice is a hazardous material – people generally wear hazmat (hazardous-material) suits if they intend handling large amounts of it. It turns directly from a solid to a gas at about -78℃ ( that is -108℉ ). Cold isn’t it

    Tiny amounts (size of an ice cube) can be added to water and will boil off, creating the customary bubbling-cloud-type drink that you are undoubtedly familiar with.

    At that size, there is a limited danger from voids within the solid ice exploding frozen particulate across anyone who happens to be close – hence the suits

  • Yeah, right.

    Unfortunately, you can’t ‘melt’ dry ice, all it will do is sublimate. You can certainly keep it in the pool for a while (depending on outside temperature), and I suppose maybe walk through it. But it’ll be a chilly dip, you probably won’t want to stay in too long….that whole frsbite thing takes the fun out of it.

  • Yeah…..No. Dry Ice is not H2O. Dry Ice is Carbon Dioxide, it will go from solid to gas. Google and Wiki may be of some help in this matter.

  • Frozen carbon dioxide goes from the solid to the gaseous state without first becoming a liquid, it will however attract some moisture from the air which will end up in the bottom of your pool.

  • moist skill touch with liquid. Dry ice sublimes so it is going quickly to gas. you will no longer get moist yet you could desire to die depending on a lot of issues which contain volume of dry ice and how long it rather is been in there.

  • Yeah…you oughtn’t really try to high dive into that pool though…as it will be filled with gas…and you’ll break your neck.

    But you will indeed be dry on the trip to the morgue…as long as you didn’t survive long enough to bleed a lot that is.

  • This question proves our public education is not working. Many kids graduate without being able to read their diplomas.

  • Yes if you can swim in gas .

  • Well… if you melt dry ice….

    You know what…

    Nevermind.
