Make ☢️Radiation☢️ VISIBLE

Cloud chambers are nobel prize winning devices that make otherwise invisible radiation visible and they're incredibly simple to build.

I would like to see how a smoke alarm is shielded vs unshielded

Edit: 22k Likes and we haven't seen this yet :( I hope you're still up to doing this one.

The "banana for scale" is pure gold

[geoeira]

i've always imagined radioactive like area damage
but it's actually a micro bullet firing thing
that's even more awesome

[hzmicide]

The fact that they were able to sell something that was mislabeled and RADIOACTIVE on Amazon is absolutely insane.

[horselover]

“From Amazon that turned out to be radioactive” is not something I thought I’d ever hear

[swedneck]

Honestly there should just be a permanent livestream of one of these chambers, imagine just casually having this in the background and you suddenly see it light up with trails and it turns out you just witnessed some interesting event!

"A banana produces no trails-"
**A single trail comes of the banana at that exact moment**

I always thought of radiation as sort of a constant thing emanating from radioactive objects, it's interesting how it's sort of just a bunch of particles piercing through space. So if you get hit with radiation, it's like a bunch of microscopic stab wounds.

Man unironically used a banana for scale in terms of radioactivity

[GoldGamer-plyt]

Chernobyl would look like a fireworks show with this thing

[Zero_Li]

Bro, the split second moment where the banana actually spew a trail of radioactive particles kills me

[shayminthedoctor]

It is interesting how a banana still produces a few trails. Bananas are very, very slightly radioactive due to having trace amounts of Potassium 40 in them

Seeing the way it rapidly cuts through the air was incredible. Really puts a visual to how it can rip through our DNA.

[bigred]

The bullet analogy about radioactive particles from Chernobyl was spot on, holy crap.

[yoshitheonly]

The banana farting a singular trail really does it for me lol

Suggestions: a radium watch dial, Americium smoke detector source, X-ray tube, thoriated tungsten TIG electrode, and a cobalt-60 source.

Radiation is one of the most terrifying hazards known to man, you can't see it, smell it or taste it. It is known that during the Chernobyl disaster some victims experienced a phenomenon known as "radiation euphoria". It happens when someone is subjected to a large dose of radiation under a short amount of time. Some described it as feeling powerful and able to do anything, but it only lasted for a short amount of time before the symptoms of radiation sickness took its place.

Him: I can watch it for hours
Marie Curie: not the best idea, my guy.

[flameengo]

You should make an hour video of the particle trails. You’d be surprised how many would watch along with you!!❤

[SmileUponBalls]

Bro really did "To prove to you of the radioactivity, here's a banana for scale"
