The amount of mercury in a bulb is a little less than the size of the ball in a ball point pen.
Think of how many people (maybe many on this forum) who played with mercury from a broken thermometer when young with their bare hands. Yes, it is dangerous in large amounts, but all of you here are still alive?
Now that we know better, we can take precautions - recycling them properly is the best manner.
