RE: Things that scared me in high-school level science.
My very first job was to photograph asbestos removal at a university dormitory. If I had known then how dangerous asbestos was, I probably wouldn't have taken the job!
I'm imagining a Massive Type C Photographic Print of a single strand of asbestos against a blackened background, with a bloody tissue blurred into the bokeh.
Terrible stuff. They removed it from my primary school while I was a student there. Guys with full hazmat suits, and completely sealed off the areas impacted with thick plastic, and if you needed to go past you were given a mask.
This would have been about 16 years ago now. We learned at a very young age how dangerous it is as a substance.
