At least 16 workers went violently insane, and died in strait jackets. Then again, I can remember being in the pits at the inaugural Denver Air Race when the fuel truck for the unlimited racers came out with the 180 octane fuel. There was a warning on each side of the tank simply stating, Fatal If Inhaled!
I grew up on a farm in South Dakota. After a day with grease and dirt up to our elbows and beyond we'd go to the gas tank and wash the grease off with the leaded gas. It evaporated in seconds.
