The cocoons of the silk worms are submerged, still alive, mind you, in boiling water so the silk can be extracted. I have seen it on tv before. When the cocoons are put into the boiling water, they start jumping around trying to escape.

Silkworm cocoons are placed in boiling water to make the one long continuous thread separate from it.
It is commonplace to put salt in water when boiling most foods. The reason why you put salt in with boiling water and vegetables is to help them retain moisture.
Silkmoth pupae are typically killed by boiling cocoons to prevent them from emerging as moths and breaking the silk fibers. This process helps to maintain the quality, length, and strength of the silk threads for textile production. Additionally, it simplifies the extraction of silk fibers from the cocoon.

Boiling cocoons in water is necessary to kill the pupa inside and prevent them from emerging as moths. This process ensures that the silk fibers can be harvested without damage, as emerging moths would break the silk strands. Additionally, it helps maintain the quality and integrity of the silk for commercial production. Overall, this step is crucial for maximizing silk yield and ensuring efficient processing.
Probably what they wanted to say is something like "Do not put your hand into the boiling water."
No, it is not safe to put boiling water in a Nalgene bottle as it can cause the plastic to deform or release harmful chemicals.
