Well, she couldn't get the pipette pump to work, so she just used her mouth to suck the solution up the pipette =P

My teacher got out the radioactive material. He opened the box that had all these radioactive warnings and got the geiger muller tube out. It was ticking like mad! then he sealed up the whole thing with lead, and the geiger tube was still ticking like mad!!! we all were like right at the back of the room. The teacher says he's not worried about the radiation, as he has already had kids.
LOL FUNNY!!$!!

My chemistry teacher also does that. He 'doesnt believe' in the use of pumps. He also managed to cut his hand on a test tube in a yr 7's first science class.

The head of high school at my school who used to be a science teacher somehow set off all the fire alarms and sprinkers in my school after setting cornflakes on fire and it getting out of control. I dont even know why he was lighting them on fire. Just shows his inncompetance

my year 10 teacher burned magnesium and we observed the apparently dangerous 'brilliant white spark' many times, with the lights off. my current teacher never fails to mention to him how dangerous it is and its ability to make us blind.

old school chemistry lol.

My teacher told us to do that coz he couldn't find the pumps, and he said he wasn't "responsible" for any accidents, lol. Luckily he did find them in the end

my chem teacher tried to clean out a bunsen burner by attaching the gas tube to the tap and running water through it. There was too much water pressure though, and water went everywhere.

thats about it though
