When the wind is your friend and you can watch NH3 boil

This is video footage from an anhydrous ammonia (NH3) leak (liquid leak) and does an excellent job of showing how NH3 will behave when released as a liquid, with a boiling point of -28ºF.  The videographer may not have known how close he was to “death” while shooting his/her footage, but the wind was his best friend, as can be seen in the footage.  Be sure to watch the videos that follow this embedded video as they contain additional footage from this transportation incident.
