The above statement is true.
Gallium and caesium have a low melting point which may melt even with the heat of your palm. Gallium is perhaps best known as a metal that is solid when picked up but melts in your hand. Elemental gallium becomes a liquid at temperatures above 29.76°C, which is lower than our normal body temperature of 37°C.
