I thought it would equal a light on your foot, glowing indiviual, with great hair and a noble personality. (If you get it I would be concern for you)

I get part of it. Xenon is a noble gas and Helium can make you light on your feet in some way. Not following the great hair and glowing individual part though.

So I'm half of the way there haha.

I should add I am not a scientist or ever majored in any science at all, when I was in college I use to tutor a bunch of subjects including several sciences.

More of a statistics joke, and one I use to illustrate the trouble of using statistics with no context;

A new cancer drug is being tested on lab rats, 33% of the rats in the test responded favorably to the drug, 33% of the rats showed no response, and the other rat escaped.

I knew the 5th one like this:

A drunken electron driving down a motorway is pulled over by a policeman.
The policeman asks:"Sir, do you know how fast were you going?"
-No idea, -sic- but I know where I am! -sic-
