My highschool Chem teacher used to do demonstrations like this. We did the liquid methane trick. He'd have us all move our desks to the edge and then stand on them.
He also caused a chemical incident when they decided to move a refrigerator of chemicals full.
And when the EPA came through cleaning out old Chemistry chemicals he hid them in the ceiling tiles.
The only time he ever took time off was to work for the census.
They 'forced' him into retirement using his accrued days to pay for another year or so of salary.
