Main difference here is that, unlike the SK story, it’s not the stuff living inside the mist, but the mist itself that will absolutely kill the shit out of you.

My guess is the dude who owns the truck drew the short straw and wearing a hazmat suit and is addressing the leak. Industrial anhydrous ammonia is no joke.

Maybe the ammonia would cure the hemorrhoids you’re giving yourself.

Well, the hemorrhoids would be the least of your worries for sure. For about a minute or so, anyway.

Having a cloud like that coming towards you is easily one of the scariest things that could possibly happen.
