You're not kidding, I've had it several times burning pipe penetrations through galvi. Q decking on highrise jobs. After you've had it a few times, you learn real quick to wear a forced air respirator with a remote filter.
I don't drink milk, and that's what they tell you to do, the milk would make me puke without the galvi poisoning.
I worked with a guy that was a world class freediving spear fisherman. The dude could hold his breath over 4 minutes. He would use the time on the torch as his breath holding practice. LOL!!!
