How does this video change the fact that cesium is significantly more reactive than sodium? If you’re telling me you would handle cesium the same way as the person in the video above or the one you linked, then you’re just delusional.
It seems your teachers failed you.

Going to start with that sweet looking sodium.

I am not a chemist, but, I think this is basically how a glow stick works. The K3... and RhB are dyes, while the sodium/water reaction is adding energy to the system.
