Crazy Ways People Have Tried to Use Radiation
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 พ.ย. 2019
- Before scientists knew how seriously life threatening radioactive materials were, people were using Uranium for some interesting, and crazy stupid things. Imagine wearing a radiated bracelet around your wrist everyday for the sake of fashion. Would you wear it knowing how dangerous exposure to radioactive materials could be?

It took two decades for somebody to realize that radioactive condoms were a bad idea. That's terrifying.
Lol

Hahaha that's what people deserve.

Radium is effective against allergies since you cant get allergies when you’re dead.
Best comment ^

You are not wrong tho
Science
Fact if morbid
Doctors: X-Ray is safe!
Also doctors: *uses enchanted diamond armor*
no ENCHANTED NETHERITE ARMOUR lol 🤣🤣🤣
@Remington Black yh anything will not stop rad lol only hazmat suits and gas masks lol!!!
Doctors wear protection because they work with xrays every day, you only have xrays occasionally
@@splosh2070 Point.
@@getreadytobeagenius7441 hazmat suits and gas masks do very little to stop dangerous forms of radiation. Also there is more than 1 type of radioactivity. There are types of hazmat suits better at reducing exposure to radiation, but they have diminishing effects.
I read Radium Girls and the graphic details of what happened of these poor women where absolutely stomach churning.
What book?
bro then think about ARS, which in my opinion, worst way to die
@@jack_m2306 ars?

"Radium is a treatment for arthritis." You can't have joint problems if you have no joints!
You can't get an illness if you're dead!
Also pretty difficult to experience those pesky allergies then too
Radiation was used on me when I was 4, inserted in my abdominal area, it helped isolate my cancer. I no longer have cancer. 7 years in remission, I'm missing a love handle. xD
Unfortunate
Smooth Red What do you mean?
Lady buck I hope you have bad luck 👎

Congrats
Radiation and chemotherapy saved my life. Thank you doctors! Had stage 4 cancer, been in remission for 1 full year now!
“Don’t use _chemicals,_ use this all-natural...”
“Detox...”
This sounds somehow familiar. Quackery is the same all over.
Quackery yes, but usually harmless nowadays.
Keyword "usually"........
@@canichawa2242 usually = in 99.99% cases.
First of all, medicine is controlled, it cannot directly harm you unless you do something illegal or unrecommended by the doctors.
Whether the attitude resulted in harm should depend on 2 factors:
1. The Patient will not get better (so most diseases are out of the question).
2. Would otherwise survive a way longer time (so most cases of lethal cancer are out of the question).
@@wiczus6102 oh yeah I trust doctors for the most part I meant the alternative medicine people I forget where I heard it but I remember someone saying alternative medicine that works is called medicine lol
@@wiczus6102 Sure, until someone dies of severe deficiencies due to a diet based on exclusively licking rocks.
As a radiologic technologist i know this: "You shouldn't be afraid of radiation, you should respect it".
I'm gonna go ahead and do both 👍
Uhhh, if everytime you see your boss on the factory floor, and he is wearing a full on biohazard suit, and you can barely hear him say there's nothing wrong, through his biohazard suit, it's time to look for another job, lol!

This reminds me of the poor radium girls. 😔
@@TheChoppergunner100 , what happened to those women is sad, but the owners ( or managers or whatever) didn't take any precautions themselves, so I don't think this quite matches. It's odd given the fact that they made it a rule for some workers to wear protective gear, yet they didn't take those same precautions themselves, and they actually ended up going the same way those poor women went. I don't feel bad for them though because they knew the dangers. The women however were lied to and told that everything was safe.
Whats messed up is how they tried covering the death (Bribing doctors to lie about medical results, claiming it was STD's, burying the body etc) and even after they were guiltied, the company still tried to appeal the case.

Don’t mind ads, but for the love of Christ at least put them in appropriate breaks and not just shoved in there haphazardly. Ads coming in the middle of a sentence is absurd and drives me up the wall.

"Ottawa Illinois"
>Shows picture of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Yeah, I actually just stopped the video right there to see if anyone else had commented on that. What is it with Americans and geography?
Taylor Smith I noticed that, too and I'm from the US. I'm American, but technically everyone in North\South\Central America is. What is it with foreigners, not knowing that? See. See, what I did there? Generalized you. Shamed you for no reason.
Taylor Smith did the same thing.
Taylor Smith, same here.
We even have a town in Ohio called Toronto
This shows how much the effects of radiation were misunderstood, but today hopefully no one has to do such things anymore and avoid radiation unless you work in a nuclear reactor.
I got it for cancer treatment with chemo
This is one of the many reasons why it is a bad idea to time travel a century ago. You might ingest radioactive poison by accident.
Wrong Ottawa, my dude- you'll find Illinois in the U.S, much closer to Chicago.
yeah leave canada out of your quackary
The Curies' documentation and scientific notes have to be stored in lead boxes and only handled by those protected from radiation, even to this day.
Some of those girls sued for small amounts of money, if I'm correct, one only wanted her funeral to have lots of roses.
"And a annual payment of $600 'for the rest of their lives.'"
Outstanding move.
1920s $600 is equivalent to around 8-9k USD in 2019. Still silly money though.

The "Family Shoe Store" in Port Angeles, WA has a working shoe x-ray machine. They don't use it, but historically, such machines were used to view how much room was left for growth in children's shoes. There were two ports. One for the child to see into and one for the shoe salesman or parent to view through.

It took 2 decades for somebody to realize that eating radium and thorium was a death sentence.
Y’all remember when mayor west rolled in radioactive waste to give himself super powers?😂😂
It worked in the comic books lol 🤷🏿♂️
Works in fiction.
RIP Adam West you'll be missed
He became cancer man
Maybe I should try to use radiation to keep campers out of my woods

I'm assuming he next challenge will be exposing the test subject to all 3 different types of radiation
No real point since gamma does everything beta and alpha do just worse.
This should be made into a challenge 🤣🤣
@@captainobvious3174 no he could get cancer
@@captainobvious3174 because raidation is so easy to get exposed to.
already done, we get exposed to background radiation all the time, also alpha radiation is everywherem, in your computer, your tv, your phone, your car radio, everywhere, beta radiation would be the only thing missing, unless im missing something
Love your videos, The Info graphics Show. I watch one then suddenly I've watched so many!! Love seeing new videos pop up! 😁
I pity them
they sort of think that glowing things have magical powers
.
The book on the Radium Girls is heart wrenching and a worthy read.
Agreed.
@@hhbhvh9784 kinda cannibalistic but sure
When i saw the title i really hoped that dude is finally on week trip to Hawai and not doing this challenge.
From what i know there are some safe types of radiatin materials, for example you can still find glass bowls and stuff with uranium or something, also they sell glowing keychains with Triton (Hydrogen Isotope)
We're going to need more radaway.
Rad x to
*uses ghoul radiation perk* i need radiation to survive
Can't believe you mentioned my hometown in your video. Bad gastein. Made me happy 😅
You gotta realize many people who marketed this stuff also knew it was dangerous, in most callous and cold fashion. Similar to today, people know when something's dangerous, whether they care or not.
Someday we'll look back at the stuff Moderna and Pfizer is pushing today and realize that's quack, too.
Who was waiting for Frank to take his hand out of his pocket only to reveal a nub from sticking his hand under the X-rays

* Slowly removes uranium and plutonium cores from my turtle tank *
'radium condoms' well that'll definitely help stop unwanted reproduction
I ran out of hot sauce so I used radio active juice to put some kick into it while watching this.
My favorite was people using radioactive minerals in jewelry
my favourite is the uranium flavored gatorade
The factory story is crazy! I learned about that in public health school. This was awesome. I didn't know the details.thanks!:-)
So people had enough material to make nuclear bombs in their cabinet's in the early 1900's?
Better content than some other vids recently-saved by the bell
I really like system of periods in 3:47, very nice done.
Getting rid of the radioactive elements in smoke detectors, and lantern mantles in lanterns.
Americium 241 in smoke detectors is shielded, quite safe if not tampered with. Thorium in lantern mantles has been gone since the 60's but might have been found in some countries much later.
after watching this video, I am really tempted to play with radioactive toys (if those are even a thing)
Oh yeah it's really a thing just Google and TH-cam it up. One notorious one is Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Laboratory which is said to have live radioactive materials anyway really look into that.
I feel like a video will be made talking about vapes like this in 50 yrs
You both are probably rite. Unfortunately.
Can't be worse than actual cigarettes and people literally get given breaks at work to go for a smoke
This video is terrifying. Do you have one about asbestos?
It's amazing how the human race have come this far
I have enjoyed watching your videos for a long time but the fact that your infographics can't distinguish the capital of Canada from a city in Illinois makes me question the accuracy of these videos in general.
My little brother: I wanna be hulk too!
Always learn so much from your videos keep it up! 👌👍
The you probably shouldn't because around hakf of it is bogus. It's all made up. You're better off believing what you read on FB

Ottawa Illinois ?
Yeah, look it up.
Toronto, Ohio (yes that is a real town in Jefferson County, Ohio)
What happened to the old animation, it's just stock images with heads and arms slightly moving.
Doesn't this animation feel like it's just become so generic and... kind of cheap? It feels like I'm seeing this animation everywhere.
Hilarious!
The infographics show talks about the handling of radiation
Me: so what your saying is with great power comes great responsibility?
Yea, people who mess around with radiation are gonna have quite a meltdown
i spent 7 years on submarines during the 80s i a a nuclear tech just 1 time i got zapped by 10 time a x-ray .lucky it did not happen again we should use the type of reactors on subs to power city's

So, what mutant are you? (From the x-men I mean)

My friend once took some bismuth to school. No one seemed to care that it was radioactive except for me, even after I told them.
Ugh watching the radium going in the mouth at frequent intervals made me cringe so hard

I really like your video are interesting and educational
Now after this video I realized that godzilla or other radioactive creatures/people who have some amazing abilities cause of it might have been a misconception, them basically saying that radiation is healthy and gives u lots of benefits which everyone thought at the time.
1900s- radon cures you
2019- essential oils cures you

PeugeotRocket I don't mind the ads, what really gets annoying is that it auto scrolls the comment list back to the top on my phone. Makes reading comments while the video plays practically impossible.
there is a small beach in dalgety bay in fife in scotland that is still contaminated with radium from radium paint used to paint ww2 aircraft dials
Great video

I can confirm that im fascinating.
Yo can u just stop , u have killed many people with ur radiation
I never regret anything, because every detail of my past is what made me into who I am today.
That sure is nice for you.
Hey I live in Ottawa, Illinois lol there are still plots of land that remain vacant because they buried most of the materials in those spots. Along with dumping it into the river. A lot of people used to call it radium city
