Supposing that i swallow a two spoons of mercury, would i die?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I can't tell you : If you would die but it would at minimum make you very ill. Mercury is very toxic! are you considering committing suicide by mercury ingestion. If you are having thoughts about killing yourself, get seen at the nearest emergency room now. Have a friend or relative drive you or call 911 for emergency services for transport. You can call the national suicide hotlines 24/7 at 1-800-suicide (1-800-7.
