God I feel the pain. Now I consider our bloody centrifuge a reasonable experience. Noticed a droplet of blood while the other students loaded in their capillairy tubes. Went to get some sds and alcohol to clean it. I return to see it turned on and spinning. Swore to never trust any lab equipment ever again. Was I glad to have that hep A/B shot.

The extreme centrifuge was even more fun. Luckily most students were too scared to weigh the counter balance. So I got to balance that +-0,002gram tolerance fucker. No walls were broken.
