Gas Mask Safety advice

Important safety advice regarding gas masks or respirators. This video covers realistic risks to those which are mostly theoretical. In this video, I cover, the risk of asbestos inhalation from filters as well as a general risk of filters degrading over time. The risk of Chromium inhalation from filters which is widely misunderstood and a lot of misinformation is spread around regarding it. The risk of suffocation if you use a mask with a sealed filter. As well as the low-level risks of a mask containing talcum powder or a mask being contaminated with chemicals if sold as surplus. I would highly advise everyone follow the advice in this video to keep our hobby of gas mask collecting as safe as possible. If you have doubts about a mask, the safest thing is not to wear it.
