Summary

Pathe synopsis: We all think we know all there is to know about oxygen, but research chemist Doctor Din shows us in fact how little we know about it! At a research laboratory in Surrey we see in a few fascinating experiments amazing tricks liquid oxygen can perform with such varied materials as metal mercury, zinc, and an ordinary rubber ball.
