Two years ago, Louison was severely burned by ethanol during a physics and chemistry experiment in the SVT class.


Two and a half years ago, the life of Louison, 11 years old at the time, turned upside down during an experiment carried out in a classroom of his college in Saint-Lô (Manche). His professor of Life and Earth Sciences (SVT) manipulates ethanol in front of him and another student for the purposes of an article to appear in the school newspaper.

The experience turns into a drama and the boy is seriously burned, rushed to the Nantes hospital (Loire-Atlantique), and will have to undergo several transplants.

A few weeks before the trial, Louison and Nathalie, his mother, agreed to return to this episode that changed their lives, in particular to denounce the use of ethanol in the classroom, responsible for several accidents in France.
