A guy who used to work at a nuclear reactor was telling me how water is very effective at absorbing radiation, so radioactive waste can be kept at the bottom of a deep pool and the level of radiation at the surface will be completely safe.
I asked him “Does that mean I could swim in one of those pools?”
He said “No, you would be killed.”
Reminds me of this “xkcd”:
I swear I heard this myself before the xkcd strip was published. Maybe it’s a common joke that nuclear engineering guys tell.
Don’t swim in the water, I’ve heard you get severe and abrupt lead poisoning when trying.
Killed for swimming in the tritium supply.
Big superhero origin story energy.
