    Well, now this is on my list of invisible things that scare me:

    • Radiation
    • Methanol fires
    • Supercritical steam jets

    Not quite invisible but you could also splash and wade into a pool of strong acid thinking it was water, during what first seemed like a somewhat routine FUBAR maintenance situation...filling your boots etc.
