So, has anyone heard about the redditor who made a post saying he was new at rebuilding and found some lead wire laying around and built a coil with it? (lead, as in the stuff they put in bullets, old paint and gasoline prior to the 1970's). Anyway he asked reddit if this was OK to do and, of course, he got blasted and given a collective Darwin award.

Apparently, now, someone on that account claiming to be his brother says the guy has died from lead poisoning. Sad if true, but I doubt it's true. I was wondering if it would even be possible to inhale enough lead vaping a lead wire to kill (an adult). If it is true, I can't wait to hear the headlines on the news (the fact we haven't heard about it on the news tells me it is likely a troll having a bit of fun).

Oh I remember this! Dude was pretty hammered by the responses and I had a huge kick out of it. But the rest, news to me and I'm pretty active over there... I must find it...
