I was always worried about proper handling of nitroglycerin. Talking to my friends it seems that wasn't as common as quicksand or even thinking you'd need to tell gold apart from fool's gold (pyrite). Games like Crash Bandicoot, shows like Dexter's Lab, and a general interest in science may have meant I heard more about it as a kid.
