☢️nuclear nerd ⁉️debunking common misconceptions 🖥reacting to your favorite movies, shows & games
I am a nuclear engineer with a little over 10 years of experience in the nuclear power industry from engineering to operations to maintenance to emergency response to large capital projects. I don’t claim to know everything Nuclear, but I can certainly share some knowledge.

The CEO of Helion is there it is all we need to know about tat thing...when RU-vid became TikTok? The concept of the fusor was established in the 60s by Philo Farnswoth...it is a ... hummm...well very primitive inertial confinement device (inertial confinement is a dead end despite what press may have said to you). Fusion happens? neeehhh a few atoms may fuse but neutrons are barely detected. BUT! and that is a big BUT the deceleration of charged particles causes Bremsstrahlung that is a fancy German name we physicists like to call braking radiation: when a charge is accelerated (deceleration is an acceleration too) it emits EM radiation...do it with high accelerations and you have X-rays. In fact this is how X-ray machines produce x-rays (without the plasma just with electrons). If they went higher than a few dozen KV ohh boy they may have created x-rays. THey have a turbo pump? The lab at my university didn't have a turbo pump we used old mercury diffusion pumps. Do they sell them at Wallmart in USA? And Deuterium too! He had to ask heavy water from a nuclear facility nearby and electrolize it if wanted very few amounts of it. This is way expensive you need a high amount of energy to separate isotopes. Really is that so available in USA?
Hey man, I just wanted to thank you for the reaction videos you do. Often I have already watched the original videos and watch yours to fall asleep, and I mean this in the best way possible.
The whole thing about measuring lead at different depths in the oceans... Does lead perfectly suspend in water? If it were lighter than water it should all float, heaver, it should all sink, but how would it stay in the exact proportions at different depths?
So hear me out. Set up the same thing with blue led's for when the lid hits. Set it up with fiberoptic hairs in the shell. That shoot a blue glow when the lid fully encloses the the core.
Describing electricity as moving from positive to negative is because the rules of electricity were defined long before the atom was discovered. They believed it was a "positron" moving along the conductor to fill the negative gaps. Atomic theory revolutionized our understanding of electricity.
No 😅 not cool These will destroy our lives Why Because people tend to manipulate things ... causing big pollution that cannot be fixed also economic issues
ru-vid.comYHqQXs07mUY?feature=shared You might want to make a video on how crazy/stupid this is some genius took apart a smoke detector (Not to replace a battery, but to use their radiacode 103 on but srsly, don't mess with radioactive things espically smoke detectors)
After all this time you're still doing reaction videos and essentially making non transformative content. You're likeable, smart and honestly popular enough. MAKE YOUR OWN CONTENT
The scientists that played with the demon core had an understanding of how dangerous what he was doing was. He just erroneously believed in himself more than he should have.
So I watch a lot of people react to the fat electrician and that's how I ended up here, yay or nay on my nuclear power in the US? I feel it would be great
“Interesting that nobody died from the plutonium” - I’m interested to know more about its biology tbh. The fact that if was accumulating in bones suggests its uptake is similar to calcium or phosphorus. It would be interesting to see more on this, and more technical detail, even from animal and cell studies
Is that 64 Sv of linear energy emission? If so, it kind of goes to show how random / unlikely it is for 1 ionisation event to cause sufficient genetic damage to end a person. Like, these decays are happening ALL the time in and outside your body, with many of them having far higher Ev than necessary to do the job. But it takes the right event at the right time, in the right place, at the right angle….. The doses that are generally inducing harm to people (acute) are usually massive, there by reducing the odds against a direct hit.
