      I don’t do experiments and certainly wouldn’t do dangerous ones. At school I made nylon in chemistry.
      I don’t really enjoy experiments that much, which is parlty why I became a theorist.

      Not too sure about dangerous, I use liquid nitrogen a lot which is -196C so that’s dangerous and we have to wear loads of protective clothing.

      As for coolest I helped create a virus that should only kill cancer cells and leave normal cells alone so that’s pretty cool – well I think so.
